In Our Suffering, Lord Be Near: A 5-Day DevotionalSample

Will I ever rise again?

Will peace be my companion once more?

O God, my God,

see this torment that surrounds me.

Look on me with forgiveness;

rescue me with your salvation.

No longer do I pray for healing

but for a miracle.

For I know nothing apart from You,

and in this,

my life was made complete.

I will not waste away,

I will be victorious in Your grace,

conqueror in Your mercy.

You will establish me for Your kingdom,

I will run and not grow weary.

Make my joy complete

because only in You will I have complete joy.

Then, I will sing Your praise,

I will walk the path You established before me.

Praise be to God Almighty;

He has done a miracle in me today.

Amen.
