How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who has believed for decades—and is quietly tired I didn’t lose my faith. I lost my energy for pretending it still feels new. After years of believing, enthusiasm fades. What’s left is routine, responsibility, and showing up even when nothing stirs inside. That’s why Abraham’s later years matter more than his calling story. By the time God repeats His promise, Abraham is old. Tired. Still waiting. Scripture doesn’t describe excitement anymore—only endurance. Faith has become something he carries, not something that carries him. If long faith has left you weary, you’re not drifting. You’re aging inside belief itself. And the Bible treats that season with quiet dignity, not correction. #LongFaith #SpiritualFatigue #Abraham #ChristianAging #FaithOverTime51Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels tired of waiting for God Waiting sounds holy—until you’ve been doing it for years. At first, I was patient. Then I was hopeful. Eventually, I was just tired. That’s when Anna’s story started to feel personal. Luke tells us she waited in the temple for decades. No complaints recorded. No answers quoted. Just time—passing. Scripture doesn’t rush her story. It lets the waiting be the story. If waiting has worn you down, you’re not weak. You’re living the kind of faith the Bible treats with quiet respect—the kind that endures without guarantees. #WaitingOnGod #Anna #FaithOverTime #ChristianAging #BiblicalHope201Share
How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels forgotten by God over time Years passed. And nothing dramatic happened. Then I noticed how long Simeon waited. Scripture doesn’t rush his story. Decades are compressed into one quiet sentence. Faith, here, isn’t rewarded with speed—but with presence. The Bible takes aging seriously. It knows waiting can stretch into a lifetime. If you feel overlooked by God because time has passed, you’re not alone. You’re standing inside one of Scripture’s longest silences—and God still stepped into it. #WaitingOnGod #FaithOverTime #Simeon #ChristianAging #BiblicalHope121Share
OneWordStudy+FollowOne Greek word changed how I think about patience. In English, patience sounds polite. Quiet endurance. Saying nothing. But Romans 5:4 uses the Greek word hypomonē. It means remaining under. Not escaping pressure. Not rising above it. But staying when leaving would be easier. This kind of patience often marks long lives. You stayed through seasons that didn’t improve. You endured things that never got resolved. Hypomonē is not about temperament. It is about courage. Scripture doesn’t praise patience because it feels noble. It praises patience because it costs something. #BibleStudy #GreekWord #Patience #Endurance #FaithOverTime12Share
