It is Because of the Lord's mercy and Loving-kindness that we are not consumed, because His (tender) com-passions fail not.They are new every morning great and abundant is Your stability and faithfulness.
Lamentations 3:22-23
We can miss the miracles and work of God in our lives if we focus on our failures instead of trusting God. We have all sinned and we all fall short of the glory of God. Not one of us deserves His love, His salvation, His help in trouble, His comfort, His peace or His joy. Oh, how beautiful that He freely gives to us in spite of ourselves. There is never a time when God is not with us, speaking and seeking to touch our lives. He has been in our past, is active in our present and working on our future. He is there when we are suffering; He sees each tear and yearns for us to draw near to Him during these times, so that we may be safe and secure. God is faithful; He is greater than our weakness and failure. His compassion and mercy is new each morning.
Prayer
Open my eyes that I may see the work You are doing in the midst of this trouble. I understand that I fall short; I have need of Your love and compassion each day. I draw near to You today and ask that You give me wisdom and strength. You are faithful and provide more than what I want but all that I need. I trust in Your unfailing love, Amen.
