Lamentations 3:22-23 - "The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."

Every sunrise is a testimony to God's faithfulness. His mercies are renewed daily, offering us a fresh start and a new hope. When we anchor our hearts in this truth, we can navigate even the stormiest seasons of life with an unwavering assurance of His presence and provision.
