'Overalls or evening dress'

Psalms 86:5-17

1. What did the psalmist report?

The psalmist reported the God is forgiving and good, abounding in love to all who call to Him. Among the gods there is none like the Lord, no deeds can compare with His. All the nations the Lord has made will come and worship before Him and bring glory to His name. For God is great and do marvelous deeds. Great is God's love, delivering the psalmist from the depths of the grave. The Lord is a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.

Lamentations 3:19-26

2. How did the depressed prophet find hope?

The depressed prophet remember of the LORD's great love thus we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is His faithfulness. The prophet says "The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.
