In the New Year

Lamentations 3:19-26

¹⁹ The memory of my suffering and homelessness is bitterness and poison. ²⁰ I can’t help but remember and am depressed. ²¹ I call all this to mind—therefore, I will wait. ²² Certainly the faithful love of the LORD hasn’t ended; certainly God’s compassion isn’t through! ²³ They are renewed every morning. Great is your faithfulness. ²⁴ I think: The LORD is my portion! Therefore, I’ll wait for him. ²⁵ The LORD is good to those who hope in him, to the person who seeks him. ²⁶ It’s good to wait in silence for the LORD’s deliverance.
