The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases;
His mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.
“The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in Him.” The LORD is good to those who wait* for Him, to the soul who seeks Him. It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.
Lamentations 3:22-26 (ESV)
Promises and anchors for the soul:
His steadfast love never ceases
His mercies never come to an end
They are new every morning
Great is God’s faithfulness
Each new day presents us with another opportunity to experience God’s love and faithfulness. Regardless of the circumstances of our day, these truths remain the same; they never cease to be authentic. This is the core of God’s character, a reality that never changes.
This new morning, with a fresh day before you, continue to center your thoughts on this foundational certainty. Be open to sharing these truths with someone. Listen, and be ready to respond to His voice.
* Wait: Not passive, listless sitting, but faithful serving until God acts. (ESV Study Bible note)
