A clean slate

So tell me, is it two-thousand-ten or is it twenty-ten? Either way, it's a new year!

I love turning the calendar from December to January and beginning a new year. I always feel like I get to start with a clean slate.

In the book of Lamentations, Jeremiah wrote:
"Because of the LORD's faithful love we do not perish, for His mercies never end. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness! I say: The LORD is my portion, therefore I will put my hope in Him."

His mercies are new EVERY morning...not because of what I did or didn't do, but because of "the Lord's faithful love".

I pray that you will put your hope in Him this year...regardless of your circumstances. His faithfulness is great; His mercies never end; He is our portion.
