Reader’s Guide: “The Word for Today” Thursday, February 28, 2013 Read - Lamentations 4 Devastation is not something to be taken lightly. While the author of Lamentations has provided a breath of fresh hope – he is not finished crying and grieving the destruction of the city he loved so much. Once more we are invited to let the words of Lamentation wash over us and lead us back to the city of Jerusalem, the destiny of Jesus. We will soon be ready to return for the rest of Luke’s story.
