“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
I am struggling with a theological issue.
I know that this is a great truth.
I know that I am tremendously blessed.
I have so much for which to be grateful.
And yet… there are days when I wake up and have a hard time getting my engines going. Days when I feel like I might have gotten up on the wrong side of the bed, and/or should have just gone back to bed… they happen.
So, how do we reconcile these?

I think it goes with dying daily. Killing the flesh, taking on the spirit and receiving the mercy… not trying to heave ourselves out into the day in our own strength.
I fail miserably at this. But tomorrow is always a new chance.
