Goodmorning Mercy

"The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases;

his mercies never come to an end;

they are new every morning;

great is your faithfulness.

The LORD is my portion," says my soul,

therefore I will hope in him". 

~ Lamentations 3:22-24

Yes, another year is setting, and a new one is dawning ...
another year to live with purpose in Him ...
another year to be a blessing, and to be blessed.

I pray in this new year, that you walk even more closely to Him ...
that your heart will be open to what you've not known before ...
that you come to know the blessing of simply being still in His presence ...
and in the stillness,
to find the most precious treasure hidden there.

I came across this poem from long ago ...
how fitting for today.

Another Year Is Dawning

Another year is dawning,
Dear Master, let it be,
In working, or in waiting,
Another year with Thee.

Another year of mercies,
Of faithfulness and grace;
Another year of gladness
In the shining of Thy face.

Another year of progress,
Another year of praise,
Another year of proving
Thy presence all the days.

Another year of service,
Of witness of Thy love,
Another year of training
For holier work above.

Another year is dawning,
Dear Master, let it be
On earth, or else in heaven
Another year for Thee.
- Francis Ridley Havergal - (1874) -
