Iâ€™M INVISIBLE

READ:

[The Lord] gives power to the weak.
-Isaiah 40-29

THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
ISAIAH 39-40
Colossians 4

My friend Jane said something at a work meeting and no one responded. So she repeated it and again no one responded:her co-workers just ignored her. She realised that her opinion didn't matter much. She felt disregarded and invisible. You may know what that's like as well.
The people of God felt that way as a nation (Isaiah 40). Only they believed it was God Himself who didn't see or understand their daily struggle to survive!. The southern kingdom had been carried away captive into Babylon, and the exile nation complained: "My way is hidden from the Lord and my just claim is passed over by my God"(v.27).
While Isaiah agreed that compared to God "the nations are as a drop in a bucket, and are counted as a small dust on the scale"(v.15), he also wanted the people to know that God gives power to the weak and strength to those who need it (v.29). If they waited on the Lord, Isaiah said, He would renew their strength. They would mount up with wings like eagles;they would run and not be weary(v.31).
When you're feeling invisible or disregarded, remember that God does not see you and He cares. Wait on Him, and He'll give you renewed strength.- Anne Cetas
Frail children of dust and feeble as frail,
In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail.
Thy mercies how tender!How firm to the end!
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend. - Grant

Even when we don't sense God's presence, His loving care is all around us.
