Lamentations 2:22-25

"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.' The LORD is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him."

This is a very encouraging few verses all by itself, but if you read what's around it, it's even better! The writer is lamenting the destruction of Israel as they are taken into captivity! In the middle of all his cries and difficulties, he adds this! Would we be able to say that if we were in his situation? I highly doubt it! It is amazing to think how faithful our Lord is! His mercies are new every morning! Whatever we are going through in this life, the Lord is always faithful and good to those who wait on Him!! GOD IS GOOD!!!

  1. So true. It never ceases to amaze me how great and faithful God is. How can He still love us? Why would He even bother? He didn't need us but He created us...knowing what we would do and He sent His Son to die for us...knowing that we would so often regret or deny Him. What a mighty God we serve!
