He was a poet with every day struggles. At the age of 27 he came to Christ and was comforted with God&#8217;s faithfulness. It is what happens to every broken person that comes to Christ a comfort beyond the imagination that no matter what happens in your life he comforts you. The Armenian Christians have been under heavy persecution for many years. During WWI a young lady escaped a convoy that was on its way to a prison camp and as she made her way she came across <a href=\"https:\/\/thetruthaboutsyria.wordpress.com\/tag\/crucified-armenian-women\/\">14 young girls that were crucified<\/a>. The girls were naked on the crosses. They were crucified for their faith in Jesus Christ.<\/div>\n<div class=\"p\">Lamentations 3:22-26<\/div>\n<div class=\"p\"><span class=\"verse v22\" data-usfm=\"LAM.3.22\"><span class=\"label\">22<\/span><span class=\"content\">It is of the <\/span><span class=\"nd\"><span class=\"content\">Lord&#8217;s<\/span><\/span><span class=\"content\"> mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"p\"><span class=\"verse v23\" data-usfm=\"LAM.3.23\"><span class=\"label\">23<\/span><span class=\"content\">They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"p\"><span class=\"verse v24\" data-usfm=\"LAM.3.24\"><span class=\"label\">24<\/span><span class=\"content\">The <\/span><span class=\"nd\"><span class=\"content\">Lord<\/span><\/span><span class=\"content\"> is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"p\"><span class=\"verse v25\" data-usfm=\"LAM.3.25\"><span class=\"label\">25<\/span><span class=\"content\">The <\/span><span class=\"nd\"><span class=\"content\">Lord<\/span><\/span><span class=\"content\"> is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"p\"><span class=\"verse v26\" data-usfm=\"LAM.3.26\"><span class=\"label\">26<\/span><span class=\"content\">It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the <\/span><span class=\"nd\"><span class=\"content\">Lord<\/span><\/span><span class=\"content\">.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"p\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"p\">Jeremiah was the known as the weeping prophet and he wrote the book of lamentations for how God felt about his people. It is a book of poems depicting God&#8217;s faithfulness. Chapter three uses the Jewish alphabet with Israel&#8217;s sinful actions in every aspect from A-Z. Now, the way humanity has been moving from worst to worst one would wonder how long God will tolerate us, but his mercies are ever lasting; they do not fail. His mercies are new every morning. \u00a0Throughout the live people have made God their portion like David (Ps.16:5). <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sharefaith.com\/guide\/Christian-Music\/hymns-the-songs-and-the-stories\/great-is-they-faithfulness-the-song-and-the-story.html\">Great is his faithfullness<\/a>, the psalmist described God&#8217;s faithfulness to reaching the skie (ps.36:5)so he said that God&#8217;s faithfulness protects him (ps.40:11). God&#8217;s faithfulness is part of his essence (gal. 5:22) it is that concept and hope that keeps us strong and moving forward. Our outer\u00a0being, we know is deteriorating (2 Cor. 4:16), but the inner is growing and moving closer to Christ.<\/div>\n<div class=\"p\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"p\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thomas Obadiah Chisolm (1866-1960) was a normal man but with several illnesses that prevented him to enjoy life to the fullest.
