What brought tears yesterday, may still linger around the edges of today. But, take heart. Each new sunrise brings new beginnings with it. What was unfinished can be completed. What was thought unforgiveable, finds forgiveness. The seemingly unsurmountable odds of trouble can be overcome. The pain of grief begins the slow journey to peace and healing. The worries of yesterday find resolution. The restless spirit finds peace. What seemed impossible becomes doable in the light of a new day.
Let our hearts sing a new song. Let us enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Our days have purpose. Even the most difficult days. God has caused the eyes of someone needing hope, to see you working through the days of your life. They gain hope by observing your journey through the maze of lifes hard parts. With the rising of the new sun of this day, we have new hope, new love, new compassion, new healing and renewed forgiveness, mercy and grace.
~Scripture For Today~
Psalm 100:4
4 Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name. (NASB)
Habakkuk 3: 17-18
17 Though the fig tree should not blossom and there be no fruit on the vines, Though the yield of the olive shall fail and the fields produce no food, Though the flock should be cut off from the fold and there be no cattle in the stalls, 18 Yet I will exult in the Lord, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation. (NASB)
~Prayer For Today~
Hello Father! We praise You for each new day. We pray for Your intervention in our circumstances. For consolation in times of grief and resolution of those things that bring fear and worry. For healing and restoration. For hope and peace to prevail. We will exult You as Lord no matter the circumstances we face. Forgive us our sins. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
