FACING HOPELESSNESS

Lamentations 3:19-26
Holy Bible. New Living Translation copyright © 1996, 2004 by Tyndale Charitable Trust

Hope in the Lord’s Faithfulness

19 The thought of my suffering and homelessness is bitter beyond words.
20 I will never forget this awful time, as I grieve over my loss.
21 Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this:

22 The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease.
23 Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning.
24 I say to myself, “The Lord is my inheritance; therefore, I will hope in him!”

25 The Lord is good to those who depend on him, to those who search for him.
26 So it is good to wait quietly for salvation from the Lord.


The Prophet Jeremiah faced opposition throughout his days, yet he never lost faith. His hope remained in the LORD.

In these days of though economics, terror threats, moral decay and compromising values, remember as Jeremiah did … when facing hopelessness hold on to God’s faithfulness!
