Be Patient, Have Hope

Good Morning!! A night of weeping can sometimes appear to be endless. Sorrow can come on us in waves, often hot on the heals of disappointment. And if physical pain wracks our body, or physiological pain has griped, or broken you heart,...the night just seems to stretch on and on. Weeping does indeed endure.

 ...weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.—Psalm 30:5b (NIV)

But here is the great consolation of Scripture. Joy may seem to appear to be slow, in getting to us, but it is irresistibly moving toward us,...and will reach us, with the darkness-shattering power, of dawn. Now matter how severe the shadows, no matter how stormy the darkness, if we can just hold on,...the dawn will come, and the night will be easily and quickly, forgotten. No darkness is so great, that the coming of the Son does not drive it away.

Joy is coming,...just hold on!

Holy Spirit, help us to remember; that no matter how dark things seem,...the best is yet to come. Amen.
