August 26, 2024 Bible Study — The Lord Is My Portion

Today, I am reading and commenting on  Lamentations 3-5.

I write this a lot, but once again I am not quite sure how this is going to come together as I write about today’s passage.  Once again in today’s passage the writer, probably Jeremiah, speaks of his terrible sadness and the suffering he has experienced.  In the midst of his suffering he calls to mind what he knows about God.  He knows that God’s compassion will never fail and that He is ever faithful.  This knowledge lifts the writer up with hope.  It inspires him to wait for God to act because he knows that God is good to those who put their hope in Him.  Let us wait quietly for God’s salvation.  Seek God and He will rescue us from our affliction.

I use the daily Bible reading schedule from “The Bible.net” for my daily Bible reading.
