Dare to Hope

I will never forget this awful time, as I grieve over my loss. Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this: — Lamentations 3:20-21 (NLT) The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. I say to myself, “The LORD is my inheritance; therefore, I will hope in him!” The LORD is good to those who depend on him, to those who search for him. (Lamentations 3:22-25 NLT) So be strong and courageous, all you who put your hope in the LORD! (Psalms 31:24 NLT) No matter what troubles or calamities come your way, dare to hope in Yahweh, the Everlasting, Almighty God, the great “I AM.” And your hope will not be disappointed.

His Mercies Never Cease!

The thought of my suffering and homelessness is bitter beyond words. I will never forget this awful time, as I grieve over my loss. Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this: The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease.  — Lamentations 3:19-22 (NLT) God does not withhold His tender mercies from us. Great is His mercy toward us! The LORD crowns us with lovingkindness and tender mercies (Psalm 103:4). Every morning we receive fresh, new mercies and compassions. He is the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort (2 Corinthians 1:3).  The LORD is gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and great in mercy (Psalm 145:8). Go boldly to the throne of grace, so you can obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16).
