Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:30-31. I {Jesus} have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. John 16:33
