I
Waited Patiently For The LORD
I waited patiently for the LORD; he
inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the desolate pit, out of
the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new
song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put
their trust in the LORD.
Happy are those who make the LORD their
trust, who do not turn to the proud, to those who go astray after false gods.
You have multiplied, O LORD my God, your wondrous deeds and your thoughts
toward us; none can compare with you. Were I to proclaim and tell of them, they
would be more than can be counted.
Psalm 40:1-5
Greater than any deliverance from a
literal sea is God's provision for those who are trapped in the ocean of unbelief.
Only a miracle of grace can bring us out of the pit of sin and degradation.
If you are caught in the grip of sin,
Jesus alone can give you a new start. If you put your trust in the Savior, you
will be lifted out of the waters of judgment and into and into the sunlight of
God's forgiveness.
God's grace can
lift you from the plight of sin
into the light of
salvation.
