March · Day 86 of 365

Wait, and See

Renewal & Hope

Scripture
Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God.
Psalm 146:5 (KJV)

Reflection

Some seasons stretch the soul thin. Psalm 146:5 speaks tenderly into that stretching: "Happy is he that hath the God…" 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

God of all comfort, restore what is weary in me. Anchor my soul in Your faithfulness. Amen.

Thought for the Day

What am I waiting for, and what does it look like to wait well?
