“Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning ...” (22-23). When confronted with the terrible violence of the Babylonian attack on Jerusalem and the tragic conditions of a 2-year siege, Jeremiah clung to God’s compassion. He declared by faith: “The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him” (24). Jeremiah believed that the destruction and death all around him was not the end; God was still willing to forgive and show mercy.

“It is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord” (26). When we trust God’s overflowing and powerful love, we can wait for Him, even when the present looks dark. He will not fail us.
