“I cry out, My splendor is gone! Everything I had hoped for from the LORD is lost! The thought of my suffering and homelessness is bitter beyond words. I will never forget this awful time, as I grieve over my loss. Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this: The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. I say to myself, The LORD is my inheritance; therefore, I will hope in him!”
- Lamentations 3:18-24 (NLT)
