“It is of the LORD’S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23 (KJV)
“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.” 2 Corinthians 4:16 (KJV)
We Are Renewed
Both the Old Testament and the New Testament have Scriptures written for our benefit. We are reminded that each day is a new opportunity, and each new year is a new opportunity. Even though we are aging on the outside, we are growing spiritually into our true selves as we seek to know God better. We are being renewed with each new day and year. Embrace the new opportunities that Jesus will give you this year as He leads you to know Him better and to follow Him.
