New Every Morning


"The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease,

For His compassions never fail.


They are new every morning;

Great is Your faithfulness."
- - Lamentations 3: 22-23



I saw this comic this morning and immediately thought of the above verse. God mercies are new every morning. Each day is a gift from the Lord. Am I extending new mercies to those I come in contact? My husband, my children, and/or my coworkers?

"'Master, how many times do I forgive a brother or sister who hurts me? Seven?'
Jesus replied, 'Seven! Hardly. Try seventy time seven.'"
--Matthew 18: 21-22 The Message
