Lamentations 3:22-24:
"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."
I love Lamentations. As the Israelites lament in their captivity, chapter 3 recognizes God's great and beautiful compassion in it all. He is still their rock of salvation and is continuously and endlessly faithful.
What a wonderful God we serve.
Lord, may I be reminded of your new mercies every morning. May I remember your cross in everything that I do, the words I say, and the way that I reflect who you are. Thank you for sending your son in the muck and mire of this world to be a shining light of hope and grace for the brokenness that is humanity. I love you Jesus. :)
May you also be reminded to please not let my cat die.
