Isaiah 40:31 KJV said:
31. But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run , and not be weary ; and they shall walk , and not faint .

This verse actually means a lot to me personally. It was one of the first Bible verses I ever learned, (After John 3:16 and a few in Romans)

Aside from that, this verse kept me in my Bible during a very stressful time in my life. We were going through a move, I was going to school under a double work load, (22 credit hours) I was working 30 hours a week AND my mom ended up having double knee reconstruction surgery. I was waiting on the Lord a lot during that point of my life. I think I averaged 3-4 hours of sleep a night, not all in a row either. Yet at the same time I managed to pass every class, and kept up at work AND got packed up to move. It was all God...

I also like the KJV translation of this verse better than the NIV one... It sounds better. :)

God bless!
