New Every Morning
Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
— Lamentations 3:22-23
Lamentations is a book written in the middle of devastation — Jerusalem had fallen, the temple was destroyed, and the people were in exile. Yet in the darkest chapter of this dark book, the writer pauses to declare God's faithfulness. Every morning is a fresh start, a new supply of mercy. Yesterday's failures do not define today. Whatever you are carrying from yesterday — guilt, regret, disappointment — lay it down. God's mercies are waiting for you this morning, brand new.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for new mercies today. I release yesterday's failures and receive Your fresh grace this morning. Your faithfulness is great, and I choose to trust You with this new day. Amen.
