October 29th: Fresh Start Every Morning

October 29th: Fresh Start Every Morning

Lamentations 3:22-23 - "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."

Every morning, as a chef selects fresh ingredients to create culinary masterpieces, we are graced with a fresh start, gifted by God's unfailing compassion. His mercies are not recycled or reused; they are brand new, tailored for each dawn.

In our journey, it's inevitable to encounter days of mistakes, regrets, and missed opportunities. Yet, with God's steadfast love and unmatched faithfulness, we can awaken each day to a clean slate. Self-control guides us to embrace these new beginnings and not to be ensnared by yesterday's shortcomings.

Imagine the freedom of starting each day unburdened, with eyes set on the possibilities rather than the past.

Reflection Questions:  

  1. Are there past mistakes that you're still holding onto, hindering your fresh start?
  2. How can you more actively embrace God's new mercies each morning?

Morning Prayer:  

Lord of New Beginnings, thank You for the fresh mercies You bestow upon me every morning. As I step into this day, let me walk in the fullness of Your grace, leaving behind yesterday's burdens. Amen.
