“He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy.” ~ Job 8:21
Though our momentary troubles seem to last a lifetime, yet in our season, God will fill our mouth with laughter and our hearts with joy. For His love toward us is great. Don’t give up hope, cling to it in times of great troubles and distress. When we lose a loved one. When we lose a job. When we feel lost and confused, and God seems to be far away. Cling to Him. Search for Him. Call out His name. Because He hasn’t forgotten you, He’s just waiting for your invitation to come in.
Thank you Father, for the promise of hope, for Your promises never fail. You are the God of the new. So, Oh LORD God, create in us new joy. Create in us new hope that cannot be easily rattled. That cannot be easily shaken. That will be able to withstand any obstacle set before us, oh LORD. Remember Your promises, and bring laughter and joy into our lives once again. In Jesus name, amen.
