Faithful in AfflictionLamentations 3:22-23

No. 158

Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.Lamentations 3:22-23

These words were written in the rubble of Jerusalem's destruction. Jeremiah had lost everything. And from that devastation he writes about mercy that never fails and faithfulness that shows up fresh every morning. Not despite the pain — in the middle of it.

Reflect

What morning this week could you declare "great is Your faithfulness" — not because everything is fine, but because He hasn't left?

Prayer

Lord, great is Your faithfulness — even in my hardest season. Your mercies meet me every morning. Thank You. Amen.
