Day 247 and 248: Lamentations, August 28th and 29th, 2023

A lament over the destruction of Jerusalem, and the judgment and exile of the people of Zion

Lamentations 3

21 Yet I call this to mind,

and therefore I have hope:

22 Because of the loving devotion of the Lord we are not consumed,

for His mercies never fail.

23 They are new every morning;

great is Your faithfulness!

24 “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,

“therefore I will hope in Him.”
