" My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat." - Psalm 32:4
This image that David paints for us is one that I can clearly picture. South African summers can be extremely hot, and water easily evaporates in the intense heat. The warm days also drain our energy and make us feel lethargic.
The reason for David's strength 'evaporating' had a lot to do with his own decisions and unwillingness to turn back to God. However, when he eventually confessed his sins and experienced the mercy of God, it was like his strength was renewed and restored.
Isaiah 40:29 - He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.
