Episode 351: Lamentations 3

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Lamentations 3

Your faithful love is enduring, Father. It never ends. Your compassion is inexhaustible and your mercies never cease. Great is your faithfulness, as broad as the day. Your mercies begin afresh each morning. I have courage because you are my inheritance. I put my hope in you.

You are good to me, Father, because I depend on you and I search for you wholeheartedly. It is good for me to wait quietly for your salvation. You will make things right again. It is good to submit to the yoke of your discipline.

I sit alone patiently in the silence beneath your demands. I fall face down before you. There is hope at last. I turn the other cheek to those who strike me, and I accept the insults of my enemies. 

I am kept in your care, you have not abandoned me. Though I may experience grief, you show compassion because of the greatness of your unfailing love. Keeping me down is not your desire or the way of your heart. You don't want me to suffer or sorrow.

I search out my thoughts and examine my ways. I turn to you, Father. I lift my heart and my hands to you in praise and supplication and confess my sins and rebellion. 

I called on your name, Father, from deep within the pit. And you heard me when I cried for help. You came when I called, and told me not to be afraid. You took up my cause and you have been my champion. You came to my defense. You paid the price and redeemed my life. 

So be it.

Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
