Let's fervently pray for both Duniog and Gwuelianmond. God is close to them in their pain. "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds" (Ps 147:3). Trust His love and comfort. "Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you" (Ps 55:22). In Jesus' name!

But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
—Romans 8:25 (KJV)
I'm not good at waiting. I don't like waiting for Christmas. I don't like waiting in line to check out or check in somewhere. I don't like waiting for someone who is late. I don't like waiting for a surprise. I don't like to wait for.... well, you get the idea, I don't like to wait. But my hope in the LORD gives me patience beyond my human tendency. As much as the LORD has blessed me, I'm fully confident that I can't even begin to imagine the good things Jesus has in store for me when he comes again! So, while I wait, I try to stay busy, busy loving my Father in heaven and busy sharing his grace with others.
Thank you, dear Father, for the patience I possess as I await Jesus' coming. This patience is beyond my normal inclination, and I recognize it as a gift from your indwelling Spirit. Bless my efforts at leading others to know Jesus and to find salvation in him. Bless my faith so that it will be strong and endure my waiting. Please bless my life, not with worldly goods but with godly patience and compassionate character, so I can be a light to others. In Jesus' name. Amen.
