Sept. 10, 2013

Lamentations 3: 25  The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him,
    to the one who seeks him;

It is still all gloom & doom, but in the middle of the wailing, the author pauses for these thoughts.  We must wait patiently for God is always there.  "Great is thy faithfulness...morning by morning new mercies I see."

I am awake in the middle of the night; it seems as though every part of me aches.  I have resorted to my last pain pill, hopeful that it will give me another hour of sleep before work.

I need a faithful God about now.  My hope is in his mercy to get me "my daily bread."

Prayer:  O, Lord, I need you, how I need you.  Ease my pain, still my heart, and help me to rest before the new day begins.  I long to do your will, but my body is weak.  Give me strength and endurance through this time of trials. 
Amen
