She drove through the early morning hours trying to push the cobwebs from her mind. This fresh disappointment came just when she had begun to hope that, this time, things would be different. Why did people always seem to let her down?
The pink sky of the morning sunrise caught her attention. As the sun rose over the horizon of a new day, she couldn't help but think of God. Some familiar words from the Bible surfaced in her mind...
"Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." (Lamentations 3:22 - 23)
She knew the Holy Spirit was reminding her of the truth of God's Word. God had never let her down. He had always been there. At every twist and turn of her journey He had been faithful to her. Morning after morning His tender mercies were there for her just as faithfully as the sun rose daily over the earth.
As she thought about her life she realized afresh that God had never let her down. In times when she felt confused or disappointed, He was there to help her. He held her through the ups and downs of everyday. She determined to praise Him for that even in the face of this fresh disappointment.
Take a moment right now and review God's track record in your life. He has been faithful even when others have not. He is faithful even when we ourselves have not been faithful to Him.
Right now, as you read these words, His compassion for you is a sure thing. You will not be consumed by the present circumstances if you look to see His fresh mercy and grace every day. They are there for you today just as surely as the sun rises above the earth.
