GOD'S UNENDING MERCY

LAMENTATIONS 3:22-23 (MSG)
GOD’s loyal love couldn’t have run out,
his merciful love couldn’t have dried up.
They’re created new every morning.
How great your faithfulness!


2 CORINTHIANS 4:16 (CEB)
So we aren’t depressed. But even if our bodies are breaking down on the outside, the person that we are on the inside is being renewed every day.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
God's renewing mercy never dries up so neither do we, the objects of his love.

PRAYER
Loving God, you never stop reaching out to us in your kindness and mercy. Yet, we barely notice until things get desperate. Help me to tune into your love on a daily basis. I want it to renew my life as nothing else can do. Amen. 

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name; your Kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
