“The Lord Is Everything
I Will Ever Need.”
The Lord loves us very much. So we haven't been
completely destroyed. His loving concern never fails.
His great love is new every morning. Lord, how faithful you are!
I say to myself, "The Lord
is everything I will ever need. So I will put my hope in him."
The Lord is good to those who put their hope in him. He is good to those who
look to him.
It is good when people wait quietly for the Lord to save them.
It is good for a man to carry a heavy load of suffering while he is young.
Let him sit alone and not say anything. The Lord has placed that load on him.
Let him bury his face in the dust. There might still be hope for him.
Let him turn his cheek toward those who would slap him. Let him be filled with
shame.
The Lord doesn't turn his back on people forever.
He might bring suffering. But he will also show loving concern. How great his
faithful love is!
He doesn't want to bring pain or suffering to people.
Lamentations 3:22-33
In times of crisis, we grasp the importance of every
hour. During our ordinary routine, however, we often forget that each day is a
second chance.
We can choose to live with thankfulness for God’s mercy
and grace, with confidence in His faithful care, and with hope because He is
with us forever. Today, God offers us a second chance in life. Let’s make the
most of it.
Our God is a God of second chances.
