Week #7- Isaiah 40:31 - Ep. 118
But those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.
In this conversation, John Grdina and Dr. Daniel Galasso discuss the importance of finding strength and renewal in God. They emphasize the need for fathers to be Christ-like stewards and examples for their children. The conversation explores the verse Isaiah 40:31, which speaks about renewing strength by waiting on the Lord. The speakers highlight the significance of prayer, rest, and simplifying life to draw strength from God. They discuss the practice of yielding and waiting on the Lord, recognizing the soul's need for stillness. The conversation concludes with a call to support and restore one another in marriage and a reminder to be grateful for spouses.
Fathers should strive to be Christ-like stewards and examples for their children.
Waiting on the Lord and drawing strength from Him can renew and restore weary souls.
Prayer, rest, and simplifying life are essential for finding strength in God.
Yielding and waiting on the Lord allows Him to fill and renew us.

Why are we discussing this book?
What is the best way for fathers or grandfathers to read through Scripture, 52 specific verses, and then how it can be used in their life? So what Daniel and I are going to do is we're going to use the SOAP method:
The term "SOAP method" is often associated with a structured approach to studying and reflecting on scripture. The SOAP method is an acronym that stands for Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer. It provides a systematic way to engage with and apply the teachings found in the Bible. Here's a brief overview of each step:
- Choose a passage or verse from the Bible to focus on. Read and meditate on the selected scripture.
- Reflect on the passage and observe details such as keywords, themes, and any significant context. Consider the historical and cultural context of the passage.
- Apply the teachings of the scripture to your own life. Consider how the passage can impact your beliefs, attitudes, and actions. Think about practical steps you can take based on the insights gained from the scripture.
- Conclude your reflection with a prayer. Communicate with God about what you've learned, express gratitude, seek guidance, or ask for strength to apply the lessons from the scripture.
