"Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom."
Isaiah 40:28
How thankful I am for those words. As I battle my own weariness of the whining and crying and needs/wants of my precious little ones, I realized that my God doesn't grow tired or weary of me. My voice is never like fingernails on a chalkboard. Yes, He wants me to stop complaining, but it's not because He needs a break from me. He simply wants me to trust Him more. He loves when I ask things from Him because He desires to give good things to me; yet when He says, "No" or "Wait," He wants me to believe He has the best in mind for me. How thankful I am that He does not grow tired or weary. He never puts me off because He doesn't want to deal with me. If only I could love my kids even a fraction of the way He loves me. If only I lived my life fully accepting His unconditional, completely free gift of love.

Thanks for sharing. That is just what I needed to hear after a couple of rough days with my little man.
