Lamentations 3:22-26 — 
 It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24 The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25 The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord


The writer declares that God's mercies are new every morning and that his faithfulness is great, encouraging the soul to hope quietly in the Lord.

Looking back along a winding road can be painful, but it can also be profoundly healing. When you stop long enough to identify the old familiar markers of God's mercy in your past, you discover that you were never as alone as you felt. The testimonies shared in that church service were not coincidences. A spot on a heart that disappeared. A family restored after addiction. A peace that settled in a hospital hallway. These are markers. God leaves them on purpose so that when the next hard stretch of road appears, you have evidence to stand on. You have been blessed beyond your wildest dreams, even when it did not feel that way!

Today, whatever comes your way will first pass His mercies before they get to you! He will be there for you and with you! He will be your strength and your guide. Trust Him and embrace His mercies of this day!

You are loved and you have been prayed for!
