Grace for your spirit
The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. "The LORD is my portion," says my soul, "Therefore I have hope in Him." Lamentations 3:22-24
The life work of Jeremiah had just went down the drain. He had preached his entire life trying to save Jerusalem and the nation of Judah. Now the Babylonians had conquered them and destroyed the city. The survivors were in bondage. God's people had lost their place, their authority, and their song. As Jeremiah lamented over the loss, his confidence in the Lord never failed. History may have recorded his ministry as a failure, but Jeremiah knew better. His success was in knowing and communicating the lovingkindness, compassion and faithfulness of the Lord. The Lord was his portion and his hope. Too often we grade our ministry by the world's standards, and become discouraged. When we have followed the path of our Lord, we will always be winners in His sight.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Chris be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
