“If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand forget her skill.  May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth
if I do not remember you, if I do not exalt Jerusalem above my chief joy.”  (Psalm 137:5-6)

Consider the works of the Lord’s
hand.  What has He promised to the
faithful?  He will not forget those who
have turned to Him and trusted Him for His word.  Come to the Lord who has promised your
salvation through faith and by grace. 
Turn to the One who will never forget His promise and live into the hope
He gives.  He is faithful and will
fulfill all that He has promised.

Lord, in times of trouble I wonder where You are.  Remind me through Your Word that Your promise
is always present regardless my circumstances. 
Lead me in the way of hope and truth that I may now and always walk by
faith.  Keep me from stumbling over
hindrances that I may now and always live the gift of faith that You have given
me.  May I be found amongst those in whom
You have joy.

Lord Jesus, You have come that
all those who walk with You would be made complete.  Lead me throughout this day that I would
humbly walk with You my Savior wherever You lead.  Lift my eyes up to never lose focus upon Your
never-failing promises that I may be encouraged throughout this life.  Guide me, Lord Jesus, to where I need to go
and give me the will to follow You to the end. 
Amen.
