----New Every Morning ~~ --[Please Read / Lamentations 3]
-"My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD, in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up." ---(PSALM 5:3)-- 
--My favorite time of the day is just before dawn. It requires rising early, but it is worth the effort. Daybreak gives an opportunity to see a new miracle each day as it happens. When the sun appears, I think I get a little sense of God's pleasure when He said, "Let there be light," and there was light! We can experience this many times if we rise early and look to the east.
God's mercies are also new every morning, and great is His faithfulness. The prospect of a new supply of mercy and grace for the issues of today is like watching darkness being chased away by light. Yesterday with all its pain or regret is gone forever. If I have succumbed to bitterness or self-pity or greed or lust, I have another chance to implore God's mercy and live in victory. If I have be bullied or insulted, I have a new supply of grace available to see God's had at work in cultivating humility in me. The prospect of what may happen today need not make me fearful that I will fail again. Being born-again is not a one-time experience. After the initial new birth by repentance and faith, God continues to give new starts. The trials of life call us to Him for new mercies every day. Each new day gives me a new empty sheet to fill with whatever God's mercy and grace will enable me to do. What a blessing! Indeed, "great is thy faithfulness." --'Beside Still Waters'/LH~-[(Hold On, Hold On,) 'Help is On the Way'(Amanda Lindsey Cook)~~ --< https://youtu.be/SrZzfRgNYY4> ~~~~~~~~~~~
