Grace gives us what we
do not deserve. Mercy removes the punishment and puts in its place, compassion.
God’s mercies, His compassions are new every day. Need forgiveness? Want to
forget yesterday? God wipes the slate clean as we turn back to Him asking, once
again, for Him to be merciful to us.
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. Lamentations 3:22:23
The faithfulness of God is not of
this earth. We give up on others. We get angry and bitter and are filled with
unforgiveness. Not Him. His compassion and His mercy know no bounds. They are
new every morning. Great is His faithfulness.
Lord,
We return to You time and again with our sinful natures, but
You keep encouraging us, building us up with Your kindness, Your grace, Your
faithfulness and Your compassion. Here we are again, Lord.
Amen
