He gives power to the faint and increases the strength of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall. But those who wait upon the LORD will renew their strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint.
Some evenings end with a few minutes in a parked car, engine off, before going inside to whatever is waiting there. The day has been full since the first alarm, and tomorrow is already lining up behind it. In that tired quiet, hope can feel like something meant for other people.
