Lament and Hope: A Pan African Quad-Centennial Devotional Guide - Flipbook - Page 2
“The thought of my affliction and my
homelessness; is wormwood and gall!
My soul continually thinks of it and
is bowed down within me.
But this I call to mind, and
therefore I have hope:
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases,
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.”
Lamentations 3:19-23
The devotional guide is dedicated to my mother, Rev. Elder Geneva Willis Walker, who encouraged me to write
both the paper that framed the devotional and the devotional itself but who passed before either was completed.
—Rev. Dr. Angelique Walker-Smith
