Mercy for This Morning
3 min read · Grace
Lamentations 3:22-23
It is because of Yahweh's loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his compassion doesn't fail. They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness.
A new morning does not erase yesterday, but it does meet us with fresh mercy. God's compassion is not a scarce resource that you used up with your last mistake. Let today be received rather than earned. Begin again with honesty, make amends where needed, and trust that faithfulness is present even before you feel ready.
Today’s prayer
Faithful God, thank you for mercy that meets me again. Help me receive it with gratitude and extend that same compassion to someone else. Amen.
