Isaiah 40:30-31
30Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
31but those who wait for Yahweh shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.

"Those who wait acknowledge their weakness. Only the faint receive renewed strength. The young grow weary; the strong stumble. But those who admit exhaustion and wait—THEY soar. God's strength is for the weak, not the self-sufficient." — Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Lutheran: strength through acknowledged weakness.
