Good Morning

Lamentations 3:22-23

It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

This morning I woke up thinking about how most days we deal with the same problems. Sometimes we find ourselves just going to sleep in order to get away from some things; only to wake up to the same problems waving at us the next day, saying good morning.

What do we do when things around seem like they will never change?

When I woke up and saw the same situations staring me in the face, I sat up. And, behind my problems, I saw brand new mercies. I began to ask God, "Why does it seem my problems wake me up?" God said, "Because, that's what you choose to look at."

In the book of Lamentations, it says, "It is because of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed." It has nothing to do with us. It has nothing to do with where we are in life. We have nothing to do with why things have not consumed us. It is of the Lord's mercies.

So, even though you may the same problem looking at you, your problem is getting older. But, every morning, God's mercies are new. Don't complain. Don't compare your problems with someone else's problems. Have peace, joy and understanding in knowing that even if yesterday's mercies didn't defeat the problems, I get new mercies every morning. Don't get frustrated with God, because He keeps sending you new stuff. And, as long as you're fighting old things with new things, you realize that the old things get weaker over time, but new things remain strong.

DAILY LOVE FROM HIM ABOVE
