New Every Morning

                                                          New Every Morning

 

Psalm 113:3 “From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised.”

 

The air is still. The sky is dark. Light emerges. Pinks and purples and blues. A beautiful painting in the sky. Different every day. Breathtaking always. Uniquely designed by a magnificent Creator.

 

The sunrise ushers in a new day. A new beginning. A fresh start. A reminder of God’s love. Of His faithfulness and His majesty. A reminder that our God is still on His throne.

 

A sunrise is God’s gift to everyone. The sun rises in the city as well as in the country. The woman in the tiny apartment watches the sun rise from her window. The millionaire watches it from his mansion. The athlete training for a marathon sees the sun rise during his morning run. The patient in the hospital room looks out the window at the brilliant colors. The sun rises for the youngest child and for the oldest man. God’s sunrise is a reminder of God’s love for every person everywhere.

 

Life is uncertain. None of us knows what a new day holds. Or a new week or a new year. Circumstances can change in a heartbeat. Sometimes for the better. Sometimes for the worse. Change is inevitable.  But God never changes. He is always faithful. He always keeps His promises. He is always good. Always wise. Always in control. His love never fails. 

 

Wherever life takes us, the sun will rise every morning. Every sunrise will bring a new beginning. A fresh start. A reminder of God’s love. As the sun rises each morning, may we our hearts sing praises to our God.
