Lamentations 3:24-26 (NIV)
24 I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” 25 The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; 26 it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.

 

The Lord reveals His salvation to those who wait quietly for it (upon Him)

 

Lord, I know that You have a plan and a purpose to make my life beautiful. I can’t see the scope of Your work from beginning to end. There have been wonderful times when I was on the top of the world abounding in blessings and other times things have been really hard. In tough times where health, money, friends, marriage are not looking good, my life doesn’t feel so beautiful and I question Your purpose in it all. I know that good seasons come and go, as do bad seasons. Help me be patient, and follow Your Word no matter what season I’m in. I know that You are faithful and are with me at all times. Help me grow through the trials and circumstances that are hard and to appreciate the times that are good. You are always good and my hope is in You. Amen
