Psalm 30:4: "For His anger is but for a moment, and His favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning."
I love this verse. It is a famous passage but its fame does not overshadow in the slightest its beauty. This verse speaks of God's discipline in anger but that it is also paired with His awesome and comforting compassion. It speaks of seasons, of the undulating reality of the human experience. But it also consoles us to know that this sort of ebb-and-flow was, in fact, by design, His design. There is, thus, always hope to be found in God no matter the emotional harvest or drought. Hope with the morning.
