New Every Morning

Some days all we need is some encouragement. We may feel down or discouraged; lonely or sad and nothing seems to make it all right. Trust in the Lord for He is the same day or night, today and tomorrow. We can always depend on Him. God is our Rock and our Fortress; our Shelter and our Guide.

Stop and pray for what you need and God will answer you. Listen for His answer, stay silent until He speaks. Allow God to speak unto you and bless you with His message. God's Word is true and honorable. He never fails.

"Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: 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. I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him,"" (Lamentations 3:21-23 NIV). 

Let your heart sing out the words of the great hymn, "Great Is Thy Faithfulness." "Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father, There is no shadow of turning with Thee; Thou changes not, Thy compassions they fail not; As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be. Great is thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed Thy hand hath provided-Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

"Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest, Sun, moon and stars in their courses above Join with all nature in manifold witness To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love. Great is thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed Thy hand hath provided-Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

"Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth, Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide; Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, Blessings all mine , with ten thousand beside! Great is thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed Thy hand hath provided-Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!" (Thomas O. Chisholm, 1921, William Runyan, 1923).
