Often our own sinful actions and nature cause us to cry into dark nights, \u201cLord, when is morning coming?\u201d And so, whether facing the current uncertainties, sickness, trouble or all manner of situations and scenarios, being a child of God does not free us from the bondage of the night\u2019s cry, and the longing for morning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, whatever we face, as we call to the watchman; \u201cWhen is the morning coming?\u201d, let\u2019s take hold of the faithful One as we face our night, because, however immense the darkness, we do not stand alone. So, we encourage one another that yes, morning is coming, and we wait with anticipation for that day when the sun shall rise. Let us turn in full confidence towards our Savior. We can know deep within us that He is faithful, and that, as the morning star rises within our hearts, we will find stillness and quietness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>We will be still and know His peace, till all our nights become His glorious days.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Prayer for today<\/strong>:\u00a0<em>Father God, I trust You and still my heart before You.
