for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness. " Lamentations 3:22-23
Our devotion this morning was really a wonderful fit to our life, whether the kids knew it or not (I'm going to go with not) but God sure does! I just keep thinking today how quickly days are going by, how one day will be so cold and snow covered ground, then another so warm and fresh with a sweet breeze. It's incredible how new each day is, like God's mercies, His compassion, His faithfulness.Tonight we're taking a big step in a new direction that could change our life, but it was wonderful to wake up and be reminded and refreshed that God is with us, and every morning His love is refreshed within and for us. Even watching, listening to, and interacting with my kids, I see such a growth and depth in them, that didn't even seem to be there yesterday, always changing...always new.
Tomorrow I'll be starting a spring session for music and movement classes, and even that, I'll be meeting new people, new faces, moms and their kids. What a great part of life, to see freshness, to see new life! To see the grass come up brilliant green, the sun to shine - somehow more bright than ever before, to see smiles on my kids faces even wider than yesterday! The sweetest joy, to hear of the love of God, and someone come to realise and accept that for the first time!
May I never loose that freshness, may it never seem dull, boring, or old. Praise God that He never changes, but yet His mercies are new and fresh for us each morning!
