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.
I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him."
The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him.
Lamentations
3:22-25 NIV

temptation
anger

What in your life have you not been
consumed by because of the Lord’s love, compassion, and mercy?
In Christ,

This verse has been running through my head all afternoon! So cool to click over and read it here. Great, indeed, is His faithfulness!
ReplyDeleteThe list could be many Laura! This is such a beautiful text (and photo) and love how you refer it to the many things which could consume us if it wasn't for Jesus. Another beautiful post.

ReplyDeletePraise God for the way He works in our lives! Thank you so much for your comment. God bless!
DeleteI copied out these verses recently into my journal on a day that I needed them most. I love those verses as well as the song, "Great is Thy Faithfulness."
ReplyDeletePamela, what is your pain...physical or other? I read this post and your comment yesterday on my phone and I just wished I could give you a hug.
Because of the Lord's great love for me, I have not been consumed by worry and stress. His faithfulness keeps me moving towards hope and promise. Thanks for linking up my friend!
ReplyDeleteAmen Barbie! When I read "Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed..." recently it struck me in a way that I never felt before. I love how God speaks to us that way!
