March · Day 68 of 365
Wait, and See
Renewal & Hope
Scripture
“Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.”
— Psalm 33:22 (KJV)
Reflection
Some seasons stretch the soul thin. Psalm 33:22 speaks tenderly into that stretching: "Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon…" The Lord does not despise weariness; He meets it. He invites the tired to come, the heavy to rest. There is no shame in needing renewal. There is great wisdom in admitting it early. Today, name what is weighing on you and bring it honestly to God. He is not surprised. He is not disappointed. He is faithful. Hope is rising, even when you cannot yet see it.
Prayer
Lord, renew my hope today. Where my heart has grown tired, breathe Your life into it again. Amen.
Thought for the Day
What am I waiting for, and what does it look like to wait well?
