GREAT FAITHFULNESS!

Surely you’ve sung it — ​the beloved hymn “Great Is Thy Faithfulness,” a staple of Christian worship services worldwide and used often at funerals and memorial services. The inspiration for this hymn is this passage written by the prophet Jeremiah centuries ago. We see this reflected in these familiar words of a verse and the chorus:
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.
Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
Morning, noon, night — ​arise, work, eat, sleep — ​our lives are defined by daily cycles. Each day presents fresh opportunities, challenges, and dangers — ​and sins. But as sure as the sunrise, God’s compassions are “new every morning.” Every day, every moment, God is ready to forgive, heal, and restore. And, Jeremiah reminds us, God is faithful; that is, he is always with us, supporting, encouraging, motivating, and empowering — ​so “we are not consumed.” God stands ready to love and guide us through the day.
Whatever you’ve done and whatever you face, turn to God first, each morning. Give him your day, and then allow him to guide each step.
Our great God never fails. 

Loving, faithful, merciful Father, I give you this day . . .
