3:26 (Lamentations) ““The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I have hope in Him.” The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, To the person who seeks Him. It is good that he waits silently For the salvation of the Lord.”

‭‭Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭24‬-‭26‬ ‭

Lord God, we confess that the situation around us mostly look hopeless. Things haven’t changed for so long and we confess that we wonder if things ever will. But our hope is in You. You are the unseen power and force moving and changing the seen. Forgive us for the littleness of our faith. You have not failed and You will not fail. We wait on You with eager anticipation. We seek You in faith because we do believe that You are who You say You are. And You are the Son of God. So Lord God, whether in Japan, or the nations in the 10 40 window, or in our neighborhood, or in our own souls, we wait upon You. In You we put our hope and trust. You will finish what You started and You will fill the land with Your glory. Would You start right where we are. We love and adore You. 

In Jesus’ victorious name.
