Psalm 130

Day 10 of 30 · 30 Days of Hope

5

I wait for the LORD; my soul does wait, and in His word I put my hope.

6

My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning— more than watchmen wait for the morning.

7

O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is loving devotion, and with Him is redemption in abundance.

CONTEXT

Original word: נַפְשִׁ֑י (nephesh) · properly, a breathing creature, i.e. animal of (abstractly) vitality; used very widely in a literal, accommodated or figurative sense (bodily or mental)

REFLECTION

Hope looks forward. Psalms 130:5 points to something God has promised but not yet finished.

PRAYER

Lord, I bring you what feels heavy today. Teach me to hope in you, not in my circumstances. Amen.

QUESTION

What would it look like to trust God with this one thing?

ONE ACTION TODAY

Thank God for three specific things before you sleep.

Reflections are drafts awaiting pastoral review.
