Habakkuk 3:1-16a Samuel Beckett’s play ‘Waiting for Godot’ is about two tramps, in despair, waiting for someone to show up, who never does. Believers can sometimes feel like that – waiting for God to show up in a world of evil and suffering. Habakkuk felt that way. But he ends his book assured that God will come, and finding joy and strength in God as he waits.

Philippians 4:1-23 Instability is about being wobbly, insecure, shaky, impermanent. By contrast stability – to be steadfast, anchored, secure, solid as a rock, enduring, established – is very attractive, whether the stability is financial, relational, emotional, or political. But spiritual stability is not just attractive but essential. How can we stand firm spiritually?
