12 He drew his bow
and made me the target for his arrows.
13 He pierced my heart
with arrows from his quiver.Lamentations 3:12-13
and therefore I have hope:
22 Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
23 They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
24 I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion;
therefore I will wait for him."
25 The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him,
to the one who seeks him;
26 it is good to wait quietly
for the salvation of the LORD. Lamentations 3:21-26
What kind of target have you been this week? Has it been a target of negativity, evil, and anger? Or were you a target of love, kindness or compassion? Sometimes being a target of the negative is easier for us to see, when being a target of the positive is sometimes overlooked. Why is it that we focus so much on being a negative target? I believe it is because oftentimes our hope can slip away from the Lord and we can forget what He does for us each and every moment. If we look at the Faithful Father, when we are that negative target, we can very easily turn that negative into a positive target of Hope and have an impact on those around us. Love each other and target the positive.
Have a great weekend.
