The prayer / song Great is Thy Faithfulness comes from Lamentations 3:22-33. Here is a personalized version of that prayer.
Because of your great love I did not give up. And I have no worry of your love getting tired or old, for your love is made new every day. Great is your faithfulness.
Because I know of your faithful compassion to me, I wait for you, hope in you, seek after you and anticipate your blessing. I can do this because I know you are good to me.
I acknowledge that it is good for me to go through tough times. These include times of silence when I hear nothing from you, times of silence because I have nothing to give, times of letting life throw me around and even times of embarrassment. I live through these times in hope knowing they will not last because you have not left me.
You do not abandon anyone. So while you bring times of hardship into my life, I know you are always compassionate and your love never fails. For you do not enjoy my suffering.
Have a great Sunday,
Bruce
Great.
