Lamentations 3:22–23 (NASB) “The Lord’s acts of mercy indeed do not end, For His compassions do not fail. They are new every morning;Great is Your faithfulness.”
Every morning we wake up under the canopy of God’s mercy. Our failures may be many, but His compassions never run dry. Gratitude begins when we realize we are alive only because His love holds us.
- Gratitude flows from remembering that mercy is not earned but freely given.
- Each sunrise preaches God’s faithfulness more powerfully than yesterday’s failures.
- Gratitude turns our gaze from guilt to grace.
“Mercy in the Morning”
Mercy rises with the dawn,
The night does not erase His love,
My weakness is swallowed by His strength,
His compassion steadies my steps,
Faithfulness marks the hours of my day.
The morning air carries His promise,
Darkness cannot silence His care,
Every failure meets His kindness,
My heart bends low in thanks,
My eyes lift high in hope.
The world rushes past in noise,
But His mercies are quiet and sure,
A table is set for my soul,
The cup of compassion overflows,
And gratitude fills my voice.
Father, thank You that this very morning is covered by Your mercies. I am alive not because I deserve it, but because Your love never fails. May I not take a single breath for granted.
Renew in me the joy of Your compassion. Let gratitude soften my pride and deepen my dependence on You. May my life today testify that Your mercies are indeed new every morning
