His mercies

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.~Lamentations 3:22-23

It’s been a while, more than a while.  I don’t know for how long I will be back, but just being here today feels so good.  To experience His mercy and faithfulness anew this day is pure joy and all praise and glory goes to Him alone.

As I sit in the waiting room of my doctor’s office playing Wordscapes it dawns on me that I can see words today that I couldn’t see yesterday.  Maybe because my mind was tired or mind was shut to the possibilities.  What a difference a day makes.  Less than 12 hours ago I struggled to get out of bed, but as I trusted God to empower me to do the work that laid ahead of me today my perspective changed.

As the day went along I was able to see things differently.  I was able to feel His power and move in ways that I wasn’t able to do before.  The journey of crawling has brought me to a place of standing where I am basking in His mercies.  I am not as tired as He has become my breath.

I am writing this to encourage someone else who might be going through a long night or winter season.  Be encouraged, His mercies are new everyday and your new day is coming. In Jesus name. Amen
