From Lamentations 3:22-23:  “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.”

Rising up every morning

Forgetting life’s messy side

Praying for much brighter day

God’s grace reverses high tide

Believing in God’s goodness

Guiding life’s vessel shoreward

Conversing with Lord Jesus

Blessed daily steps forward

Spending one more hour with God

Finding tomorrow’s new hope

Feeling seed of faith growing

Life discovers ways to cope

Walking away from dark past

Accepting changes through God

Witnessing grateful mercy

Life no longer feeling flawed

From James 1:17-18:  “Every generous act of giving, with every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.  In fulfillment of His own purpose He gave birth to us by the word of truth, so that we would become a kind of first fruits of His creatures.
