The reading changes at midnight Central Time, and it stays the same all day.

Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.

Psalm 31:24King James Version

Plain English

David says, "Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD," and ye means you. Good courage is bravery that trusts, not a loud mood you have to manufacture. He strengthens the heart of all who hope in the Lord. The courage and the strength belong together, and hope is the hand that receives them.

Devotional

There is a phone call you have delayed because the truth will be uncomfortable for someone you love. Your heart feels thin when you reach for the receiver. Courage, here, is not the absence of a tremor. It is hope in the Lord, and He is the one who strengthens that heart for the conversation.
