God’s Mercies

 

I will sing of the mercies of the LORD forever;
With my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations. – Psalm 89:1

 

As we travel through this journey of life, it is easy to become so busy and so stressed out that we might fail so see God’s mercies and faithfulness being demonstrated on our behalf every day. Especially in these days with so much fear and uncertainty due to COVID, CRT, schools trampling on parental rights, threat of losing your job due to vaccine mandate, government overeach, etc.

I want to encourage all my sisters in the Lord out there to take some time and pause to reflect on how merciful God has been to you and your family. Lamentations 3:22-23 are such wonderful verses, in them learn that:

It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

Think about that! It is because of God’s mercies and His faithful nature that we have not been run over and under by life. God is a faithful God and His mercies are new every morning. That means, every morning, He puts things, people and circumstances in place to help bear our burden and draw us closer to Him. There are times when it does not seem that way, but that is the truth.

Take time like the Psalmist to reflect on God’s mercies today and all the ways He has been faithful to you even when you did not deserve it and it will definitely surprise you what the Lord has done.

Have a blessed day!

    Thanks for those encouraging words! One of the joys of aging is having many years to look back on the hardest times, and seeing God’s many tender mercies all along the way. The remarkable providences, as well as the everyday kindnesses he brings. What a merciful Father!
