Show Notes

READ: EXODUS 34:6-7; LAMENTATIONS 3:22–24; HEBREWS 10:19-23

Lord, You are faithful.

 

When I despair over illness and disease

And the wars across the globe,

You are the hope of joy in the wind.

 

When I doubt that You are there

And seek the hopeless comfort of sin,

You are the mighty voice, shaking me free.

 

When I am so tired,

Weary of the pain that beats me down,

You are the steadfast strength I need.

 

When my thoughts stumble

On the temptations of the world,

You are my shelter and my rescue.

 

And when I run toward the darkness

Of hate and wretchedness,

You guide me home with the light of Your Son.

 

Lord, You are faithful. • Emily McDonough

 

• When we feel overwhelmed, sin can seem especially tempting. While sinning might make us feel a little better at first, we quickly realize that sin just makes things worse. But the good news is, Jesus never changes. He is the same God who created the world, who died on the cross, and who lives now today (Hebrews 13:8). Jesus came to forgive our sins, and He promises to one day free the world of evil. What broken things in the world or in your own life have been weighing on you lately? Consider taking some time to talk to Jesus, telling Him about these hard things, confessing any sins that come to mind, and resting in His sure love for you and for the world.

Your faithfulness continues through all generations; you established the earth, and it endures. Psalm 119:90 (NIV)
