Hope in My Wilderness

... ... ...

Hosea 2:14

"Therefore, behold, I will allure her,
Will bring her into the wilderness,
And speak comfort to her.
I will give her
her vinyards from there,
And the Valley of Achor
as a door of hope;
She shall sing there,
As in the days of her youth,
As in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt."
"And it shall be, in that day, " says the Lord,
"That you will call Me, 'My Husband,'
And no longer call Me 'My Master,'
For I will take from her mouth the names of the Baals,
And they shall be remembered by their name no more.
In that day I will make for them
With the beasts of the field,
With the birds of the air,
And with the creeping things of the ground.
Bow and sword of battle
I will shatter from the earth,
To make them lie down safely.
"I will betroth you to Me forever;
Yes, I will betroth you to Me
In righteousness and justice,
In lovingkindness and mercy;
I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness,
And you shall know the Lord."
"It shall come to pass in that day
That I will answer," says the Lord;
"I will answer the h
eavens,
And they shall answer the earth.
The earth shall answer
With grain,
With new wine,
and with oil;
They shall answer Jezreel.
Then I will sow her for
Myself in the earth,
And I will have mercy on her
who had not obtained mercy;
Then I will say to those who were not My people,
'You are My people!'
And they shall say,
'You are my God!' "

...Yes, there is HOPE in the wilderness...

A Psalm of David-36:5-9

Psalm 36:5-9

Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens;
Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
Your Righteousness is like the great mountains;
Your judgements are a great deep;
O Lord, You preserve both man & beast.
How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!
Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings.
They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house,
And You give them drink from the river of Your pleasures.
For with You is the fountain of life;
In Your light we see light

Let not the one who waits
Be put to shame
Come vindicate us with Your presence

I will wait forever, my Love
I will wait forever for You to come
I will wait
I will wait upon the Lord
