It is of
the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because
his compassions fail not. They are new every morning:
great is thy faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22-23 — NIV)
Do you sometimes feel like you just
can’t go on? You look at the things you struggle
with and wonder how God can love you. You feel like such
a failure.
God is not like you or any other person here on earth.
He is always faithful, always compassionate, and always
merciful. Unlike others and yourself He does not look at
you each day with the same mercy and compassion that you
tested yesterday. Each and every day they are renewed.
When you got up today the love, grace, compassion and mercy
that God exercises towards you is fresh; it’s been
renewed. His patience is not strained from yesterday, but
new and refreshed. It is only you who remembers, and those
who know about it, how you messed up. God looks at you
with a fresh heart. Remember how you felt the first time
you entered into a personal relationship with Him? The
love you felt, the cleanliness you felt, it was like life
was just starting. That’s how each morning can, and
should feel. Because God’s mercy and compassion are
new and refreshed each day you get to start with a clean
slate.
So don’t start today with yesterday’s baggage.
Leave it behind. Today is a new day and God’s attitude
towards you is new. Yesterday and its mistakes are gone.
You can’t go back and change them, so learn from
them. Today is here, let yesterday go and live today.
Live intentionally, purposely, free and with passion,
Pete Reinbold
