Lamentations 3:21-26

.This I recall to my mind,
Therefore I have hope.

Through the L-RD’s mercies we are not consumed,
Because His compassions fail not.

They are new every morning;
Great is Your faithfulness.

“The L-RD is my portion,” says my soul,
“Therefore I hope in Him!”

The L-RD is good to those who wait for Him,
To the soul who seeks Him.

It is good that one should hope and wait quietly
For the salvation of the L-RD.

Lamentations 3:21-26

 

Be still follower of the way, rest completely in Him. G-D is merciful to the meek, acknowledge faults and rely on HIM. The creator of all things who spoke and brought the universe to existence, formed us out of the dust of the earth, shapes all things, controls all things, and knows all things, has purpose for all things that are done under the sun. We must not only strengthen our faith but we must guard it, for our faith is constantly under attack whether we realize it or not. Where is your hope when looking into the eyes of the hopeless, to whom do you direct the broken, and when the mountains upscale around you to whom do you trust to get you to the top? Being strong minded will only get you so far, and self will can be broken, but G-D will not be broken, can not be consumed, and will never leave or forsake us.

 

I neither learned wisdom
Nor have knowledge of the Holy One.

Who has ascended into heaven, or descended?
Who has gathered the wind in His fists?
Who has bound the waters in a garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is His name, and what is His Son’s name,
If you know?

Proverbs 30:3-4

 

We must know for ourselves, and we must know for others to be the shinning example that we are called to be. To what do we find purpose? what do we define it as? everyone finds comfort in positive mindset, but this doesn't save...positive might be comforting  but if it's not pointing to the source of being positive and full of joy then it is useless. We must be a conduit for His light...this is the only way to truly transform lives, this is where wisdom and knowledge resides, not in our thoughts, not in our purposes...but in HIS. We must walk and lead to the one who HAS established the ends of the earth, who is Holy, who is righteous, who is creator of knowledge and wisdom, a mercy that abounds and makes us whole.

 

L-RD G-D creator of the heavens and earth nothing will ever satisfy my soul

nothing can ever grant me a state of peace

except your mercy, except for the provided sanctification of my soul

YOU and you alone renew and establish children returning home

YOU and you alone break strong towers that can no longer hold

 

Help us L-RD, create in us a heart that always seeks to glorify you

Help us L-RD, to not abuse the grace that you've given free of charge

Help us L-RD, to walk in your Spirit and not in our old ways

Help us L-RD, to endure in patience and not lean on our understandings

Help us L-RD, to embrace what You've already made.
