Read Psalm 33: 20-22 NIV

“We wait in hope for the Lord, He is our help and our shield.  In Him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in His holy name.  May Your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord, even as we put our hope in You”.

We have been focusing on relationships and learning together how to love others well, but  that isn’t always easy.  Thankfully we have a God who wants us to succeed and wants us to grow to be more like Him.  So, today, let’s soak in the hope that is found in these verses.  We need this hope every day to help us have thriving relationships.  I love these verses – they remind me of where I need to put my focus!  God is our help and our shield…our hearts should rejoice when we think about how much He loves us and that we can trust in Him.  His unfailing love is the ultimate model for healthy relationships.  Today, read these verses out loud and personalize them for you!  Put your own pronoun in the verse and let the power of His word, His promises, give you a glimpse of His heart! 

 So, here is your personalized version of the verse:

 “I wait in hope for the Lord, He is MY help and MY shield.  In Him, MY heart rejoices, for I trust in His holy name.  May Your unfailing love rest upon ME, O Lord, even as I put MY hope in You”
