Repeating Sentences or Themes in the Text
​

• Stop and pray. 
• Ask God to open your heart to hear what He is calling you to take away from your time together this day.
• Take the time to read this passage one time.
• Do you find that there are repeating sentences or themes in the text.
• If so, underline each of the repetitions. 
• In the Bible we know that if themes/words are repeated they are done so for emphasis.
• So, ponder the repetitions and ask God to reveal to you why he would have them repeat.
• Is there a theme that comes from these representations? What might they emphasize?
• This might not come to you all at once. It might not even come to you today.
• But, if you ask God to reveal this to you, He will give you an answer. 
• I have even waited as much as years for revelation. But oh when it has been revealed - celebration occurs.
• Be sure to thank God for meeting with you today.

20. I will never forget this awful time, as I grieve over my loss 
21. Yet I still dare to hope when I remember this:

22. The faithful love of the LORD never ends! His mercies never cease.
23. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning.
24. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning.
24. I say to myself, "The LORD is my inheritence; therefore, I will hope in him!"

25.The LORD is good to those who depend on him, to those who search for him.
26 So it is good to wait quietly for salvation from the LORD.
27. And it is good for people to submit at an early age to the yoke of his discipline:

28. Let them sit alone in silence beneath the LORD'S demands.
29. Let them lie face down in the dust, for there may be hope at last.
30. Let them turn he other cheek to those who strike them and accept the insults of their enemies.
Lamentations 3:20-30 NLT
