Saturday's Stop and Reflect ~ Psalms 130

This Week's Scripture for July 22 - July 28, 2012

Nuggets of Reflection:

• The Lord is our portion, especially when it seems like we have nothing else left.
• Put all your hope in God and wait patiently for Him to deliver.
• Don't stress. Enjoy life and receive the joy of the Lord while you wait.
• Don't let the devil fool you while you wait. God's word clearly states that He is good to those who wait for Him.
• There is always hope in God's salvation.

 


Psalms 130
(Waiting for the Redemption of the Lord)

Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord;
Lord, hear my voice!
Let Your ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.

If You, Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with You,
That You may be feared.

I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
And in His word I do hope.
My soul waits for the Lord
More than those who watch for the morning—
Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is mercy,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
And He shall redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.
