Hope For Today

Daily Encouragement for a Healing Heart from the Word of God

Deep pain and brokenness have a way of making Bible study difficult. To help bridge the gap and re-ignite our hunger for the Word of God, we’ve put together a daily devotional designed to help us all lean into God as we heal. May we seek Him daily!

Let the morning bring me word of Your unfailing love for I have put my trust in You. Show me the way I should go, for to You I entrust my life. Psalms 143:8 (NIV)

Hope For Today

October 21 - Psalm 116:1-2

I love the Lord because He hears my voice and my prayer for mercy. Because He bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!

Do you ever feel like you have no one to talk to? No one who will really listen to you and understand you? Living in this fallen world with other broken people can be so lonely.  We all fail one another time and time again.  But the God of Heaven is always listening.  His love and His mercies never cease. I love to picture a loving father, squatting down to the level of his precious child and looking into her teary eyes as she pours out her heart to him.  Something has happened that is causing her pain, and she wants her daddy to fix it.  Can't you just see him listening patiently while she tells him her whole story?  Don't you imagine him scooping her up into His arms and comforting her?  Do you doubt for a second that he will do everything he can to make it right and set her world back in order? Friends, we are the precious children of the King of kings and the Lord of lords!  He hears our prayers for mercy, and He is bending down to listen! Let His faithfulness inspire our love! Let's look into His eyes and pray as long as we have breath!
Verse of the Day
I love the Lord because He hears my voice and my prayers for mercy. Because He bends down to listen I will pray as long as I have breath. Psalms 116:1-2
