October 24, 2026, Lamentations 3:19-36
19 Remember my affliction and
my wanderings,
the wormwood and the
gall!
20 My soul continually remembers it
and is bowed down within
me.
21 But this I call to mind,
and therefore I have
hope:
22 The steadfast love of
the Lord never ceases;[c]
his mercies never come to
an end;
23 they are new every morning;
great is your
faithfulness.
24 “The Lord is
my portion,” says my soul,
“therefore I will hope in
him.”
25 The Lord is good to those who wait
for him,
to the soul who seeks him.
26 It is good that one should wait quietly
for the salvation of
the Lord.
27 It is good for a man that he bear
the yoke in his
youth.
28 Let him sit alone in
silence
when it is laid on him;
29 let him put his mouth in the dust—
there may yet be hope;
30 let him give his cheek to the one who strikes,
and let him be filled with
insults.
31 For the Lord will not
cast off forever,
32 for, though he cause grief, he will have
compassion
according to the abundance
of his steadfast love;
33 for he does not afflict from his heart
or grieve the
children of men.
34 To crush underfoot
all the prisoners of
the earth,
35 to deny a man justice
in the presence of the
Most High,
36 to subvert a man in his lawsuit,
the Lord does not approve.
What are you currently
waiting on God for? How well are you handling the wait?
