Devotion for the Third Sunday in Lent

Sing praise to the Lord, you His godly ones,
And give thanks to His holy name.
For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning. ~ Psalm 30:4-5

We all have difficult times in our lives, times of weeping and sorrow, perhaps even times when we feel God is angry at us for something we have done. Praise God, though, these times pass and God gives us joy again.

Thank You, Lord, that joy comes in the morning after a night of weeping. I praise You for Your mercy and grace. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
