There is beauty in a brand new day. We turn the page on a fresh, clean calendar for a new month. And we ring in a new year in anticipation with hope that we can begin again. We look forward to good things ahead in the new year.

Even though we’ve had struggles, endured hardships and even loss…there is hope that today will be better, next month holds promise and potential.

One of my favorite Scriptures is found in Lamentations 3 verses 22 and 23 (NIV). “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.”

New EVERY morning. God’s mercy toward us is new every morning regardless of our day before, what happened or didn’t happen. What we did…or didn’t do. God never stops loving us and His mercy on us is waiting for us at the beginning of each day. What a promise that is for you and I. And it is topped off with this ‘great is Your faithfulness’. It’s not that God chooses to be faithful. It is an attribute of God. He IS faithfulness.

Today. Tomorrow. … and forever. God is faithful and His mercies are NEW every morning!
