Remember my affliction and my wanderings,
the wormwood and the gall!
My soul continually remembers it
and is bowed down within me.
But this I call to mind,
and therefore I have hope:
The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
"The LORD is my portion," says my soul,
"therefore I will hope in him."
-Lamentations 3: 19-24
Father, thank you for new mercies everyday! Thank you that your love is steadfast and never fails. Thank you for your faithfulness, even during times when I have not been faithful to you. You ARE my portion! You are all I will ever need in this life and in eternity! If I have you, then what else shall I want. I will place my hope in you; the unfailing Lord. I will rest in the peace of knowing you are walking with me through the joys and pains and that you are my strength! I will look for and wait patiently for your return! Lord, may I not put my trust in the comforts of this world, but place all my trust in you. I pray that my life be used in any way you desire! Thank you for the gift of your Son and the Holy Spirit!
In Christ's beautiful name, Amen!
