Good morning! It’s morning right now, but regardless of the time and date, I hope you’re having a blessed day. God is good and His mercy is everlasting. Sometimes we get lost in thinking about what we don’t have. Maybe worry floods our mind and we get preoccupied with what we’re going through. But it’s the little things that should remind us that God is still good. For example, when we wake up, we should thank God because He remembered us.
You and I are clearly alive right now otherwise I wouldn’t be writing this and you wouldn’t be reading it. But we’re alive and that’s a good reason to rejoice. Imagine, we could have died in our sleep. Every night we go to sleep, we just don’t know if that’s the last time we’ll see our loved ones. But then comes the morning and we open our eyes and take in the first breath of the day. This is God’s mercy, His grace, His love giving us a new opportunity.
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. – Lamentations 3:22-23
A lot of people didn’t wake up today, but we did. The Bible says that as long as we have breath, there is hope. That means you and I still have hope. We still have an opportunity to see our loved ones, to achieve our goals, to live our dreams, and above all else, to seek God. The most important thing we can do in life is to have a relationship with God. We’re not perfect, but He is.
I’m not a perfect person and I’ll be the first to admit that I have problems and I deal with sin too. But God gives us a new opportunity whenever we wake up. The most important thing we can do in life is worry about having a relationship with God. I tell that to my son every time I’m with him because you just never know. I realize that I’m human and I could die any day. I hope that I have a long life, but if I’m gone one day, God will still be here.
I don’t know if it’s morning time while you read this, or maybe it’s the afternoon, evening, or midnight. Regardless of the time, it’s important that we thank God. To this day God has been good and His word has been faithful. We as humans fail God, but He is still merciful towards us because He genuinely cares about us us and wants us to be saved. God doesn’t want us to perish, that’s why He made the ultimate sacrifice on the cross.
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. – 2 Peter 3:9
