One more thought. Last night in my devotional time, I was reading in the book of Lamentations in which the prophet Jeremiah expresses his profound grief over Israel’s sins and resulting judgment by being taken into captivity. In that book of deep sorrow are these bright verses:
“Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. ‘The Lord is my portion,’ says my soul, ‘Therefore I hope in Him!'” Lamentations 3:22-24
Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus.
This is a great post, and wonderful reminder that our God is still in control! Praise Him!
Thank you for the reminder of the HOPE that we have through Christ! I was bummed yesterday when the final numbers came in but your encouraging words were a reminder that EVERYTHING is in GOD’s Hands and in HIS control!
Trusting in the sovereignty of God!
