Reflection on Today's Verse
Hope, patience, and prayer—three anchors for every believer walking through uncertainty. Hope lifts our eyes above the storm, patience steadies our steps through it, and prayer keeps our hearts connected to the One who commands the winds.
When we hold fast to these, trials lose their power to break us. Where today can you choose to wait quietly, pray earnestly, and trust joyfully—knowing God is still working, even in the waiting?
Personal Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for reminding me to rejoice in hope, to endure with patience, and to remain steadfast in prayer. Strengthen my heart when I grow weary, and help me to see Your purpose even in the pauses of life.
Let my faith not depend on what I see, but on who You are—faithful, good, and always on time. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
