Good morning, Friends.

These last three verses conclude our study of Lamentations. I have to admit that there were some parts of it that I did not fully comprehend. But as you know, I do not claim to be a a theologian or a great student of the Bible.

Whatever Jeremiah was going through during the time that he sang this (as somewhere I saw that this chapter had been a song), life had not been easy. As it is not always easy for us at times.

And yet, he was thankful in his song or prayer, that no matter what was happening, God was great in His faithfulness to him.

May we always remember that during our own times of trouble. God is there for us and His mercies are new every morning, no matter what we are going through.

I hope above all this chapter might say to you, that you will meditate on verses 22-25.

Just to let you know, I will be posting a scripture a day from now through February 22, without any kind of commentary.  I have much going on this month with family. But at least I plan to do that. And then from February 23-28, I will be taking time off. I hope you will still come for the daily scripture and then always check out older posts that you have not read for a while. 

Thank you for your daily support as you are a blessing to me! Have a great and blessed day!

Lamentations 3:62-63

62 The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.  

63 Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their musick.

Verses 62-63

The prophet’s enemies plotted against him constantly, but he called on God to witness all that his enemies were doing and how they had mocked him. and their rising up; I am their musick
