Do you not Know? Have you not Heard?

^{Isaiah 40:28-31 28  says}

"28 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.²⁹ He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. ³⁰ Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; ³¹ 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." (NIV) 

I have learned so much this week from this very small passage of a great book. this week started out just like any other week, I was lost in myself just going through the motions the same old junk over and over, school work, hanging out with friends and band practice and i was just looking on that great social networking site Facebook when I saw a post from a friend on this passage. after I read Isaiah 40:28-31 the words just blew me away. " Have you not seen, Have you not heard the Lord is the everlasting God." my response is have i really seen or heard that the Lord God is everlasting? To be honest the answer is no, I have been spending to much time focusing on all of the mundane things and it was just making me tired and worn out. this passage says God will restore the weariness, bring us up from our state of tiredness.

After that another verse began to come into my mind.  it is in Acts Chapter 3 when Peter and john the Disciples of Jesus are standing in front of the Sanhedrin after the Pentecost; Peter and John are asked to stop speaking of the resurrection of Jesus, there reply was: "But we cannot stop speaking of the things that we have seen or heard." this got me to thinking, what am i doing? why can i not have the courage and gall to speak about my faith openly? if i am to understand what i am reading i am to be bold enough to say that i am a follower of Christ, and that when people ask me to stop talking, i have to be able to say i cannot stop talking about the things that i have seen or heard. 

The only question left is where do you stand?
