A Candle Burning at Both Ends

This past weekend I had every second planned out, with some of those seconds over scheduled. I felt like I was a candle burning at both ends. I jokingly told someone that I was going to Google "a candle burning at both ends" to see what I looked like. I did that this afternoon and this is an image that I found with this scripture reference.

Have you not known? Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;
his understanding is unsearchable.
He gives power to the faint,
and to him who has no might he increases strength. (Isaiah 40:28-29, ESV)

Yes, I was the one who over committed my family and myself, but God is the One who gives power to the faint and increases strength. 

I felt very inadequate all weekend to complete the things that I had signed myself up for and to complete those things well. How I completed wasn't dependent on me or how I could pull myself up by my bootstraps. It was dependent on who God is and what He has done in my life. It was up to Him how things ended.
