thought for the day – Advent day 13

Psalm 27:14 and Psalm 126

‘Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord’ for when He comes and we can be confident that He will, we will live the reality of Psalm 126.

When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion,
    we were like those who dream.
 Then our mouth was filled with laughter,
    and our tongue with shouts of joy;
then they said among the nations,
    “The Lord has done great things for them.”

The Lord has done great things for us;
    we are glad.
Restore our fortunes, O Lord,
    like streams in the Negeb!
Those who sow in tears
    shall reap with shouts of joy!
He who goes out weeping,
    bearing the seed for sowing,
shall come home with shouts of joy,
    bringing his sheaves with him
