Psalm 130
Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord;
Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive
to my cry for mercy.
If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
Lord, who could stand?
But with you there is forgiveness,
so that we can, with reverence, serve you.
I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
and in his word I put my hope.
I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen wait for the morning,
more than watchmen wait for the morning.
Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
for with the Lord is unfailing love
and with him is full redemption.
He himself will redeem Israel
from all their sins.

A Prayer While I Wait
Lord,
When I find myself in the waiting, I cry out to You, knowing You hear my voice and draw near when I call. What a gift it is to be Your daughter - A daughter of the King of all kings - welcomed into Your presence and held by Your love. Thank you for Your forgiveness, redemption, grace, and mercy, which You bless me with every day.
Lord, teach me to wait for You with my whole being. To trust in Your timing, cling to Your Word, and serve faithfully even in the waiting. When answers come slowly, remind me that Your timing is perfect and that my hope is secure in You.
Amen
