“Deep calls to deep at the roar of your waterfalls; all your breakers and your waves have gone over me. By day the Lord commands his Steadfast Love, and at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life.” - Psalm 42:7-8 (ESV)
And though it seems like we are being overwhelmed, the waves of grief and sorrow, and trouble just keep coming and overflow us. But so does the Love of God as we have this promise from Him. The Lord promises to provide His steadfast love in the daytime and in the night He gives us His song to be with with us. Our response will be to sing that song God gives to us as it becomes our prayer to Him. Our lives are full of challenges which tempt us to give up our hope and in despair sink under the tidal wave of circumstances facing us. Whatever they are God is greater than that for God is always with us and His lovingkindness and mercy abounds for us. May God, in his perfection give us the hope and grace we need to trust in Him no matter what is happening in our lives. Let us today hope in God and we shall yet praise Him.
