A Prayer for Patience for the Good God Promises
By Keri Eichberger Bible Reading
"I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him." - Lamentations 3:24-25 Listen or Read Below: It's been a really hard year. One of the hardest I can remember actually. And right now, the hope-light within me seems to be dimming a little more each day. I know God is good. I know he has me in his hands. But, as the disappointment and difficulties linger longer and longer, my patience thins. How do we hold on? How do we swell with hope and joy when our hurt seems to overpower the encouragement we desperately try to cling to? I don't know about you, but I'm really good at wearing a smile. I mean, who wants to be friends with a Debbie Downer anyway? But on the inside, regardless of how justified I am to feel defeated and deflated, the long struggles of life can eat me alive. |
