His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning.
I've heard it preached before and have been encouraged by it...but now I would like to hear how the Lord has encourgaed you thru this verse...and/or maybe you can encourage us (especially ME) on AFF |
The promises here are that His anger or disapproval or even disappointment is fleeting, and the tears we weep in the wee hours when no one knows the heartbreak...they are but for a time.
In other words, problems and situations won't last always, but favor and joy are everlasting.
See, God is not like man who pulls his favor in and out like a yo-yo. He doesn't give joy and take it back...He doesn't grant favor and withdraw it because we mess up or don't measure up.
He calls and appoints and gives favor and IS the joy that passes all understanding.
I don't have much time here and don't know if this will help you, but be encouraged that God is in the midst of every trial. One songwriter said that He already sees the rainbow when we see only clouds.
He is here...
