Hope During Affliction | Prayer on Lamentations 3:17

Even in times where we’re experiencing suffering due to our sin or the sins of others, we can turn our misery into hope when we pray through scripture with God. Lamentations 3:17–24 NIV 17 I have been deprived of peace; I have forgotten what prosperity is. 18 So I say, “My splendor is gone and all that I had hoped from the LORD.” 19 I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall. 20 I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within me. 21 Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: 22 Because of the LORD’S great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. 23 They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. 24 I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” Follow Dave Cover on Twitter @davecover.  Like this content?
