The Promise of Hope
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.—Matthew 5:4 (NIV)
Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.—Psalm 27:14 (KJV)
When you feel tired and discouraged, turn to this Bible verse. Repeat it to yourself and find one word that stands out to you. Hold that one word deep in your heart. Use this time to “wait for and confidently expect the Lord.”
Heavenly Father, when I find myself waiting, lift up my heart and teach me to live on Your time.
