Psalm 102 - Even in this psalm of lament there is hope. Hope in the power of God. Hope in the mercy of God. Hope for the one in suffering. Hope for the generations to come.
Proverbs 27:1-24 - As I've mentioned in a previous post regarding the proverbs, it's not ideal to read them in chapter length chunks. A better way to read this chapter particularly is to spread out the verses throughout the day and read a proverb or two at a time. That said, here are few today's that I found particularly meaningful:
2 Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips.
5 Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy.
14 Whoever blesses his neighbor with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, will be counted as cursing.
John 20:1-18 - The disciples saw the empty tomb and believed. We may be tempted to give them a hard time since they still had not understood the scriptures and Jesus' words, but the truth is they hadn't seen Jesus yet and they believed.
