Lamentations 3:22 Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.
A word a hope in the midst of the struggles written in Lamentations. This is what I need today. At times I am so easily ensnared by the little bits of life that creep in slowly and my personal lamentation begins. These little buggers glom together and make themselves seem a lot larger than they really are. I find myself continually being reminded of them and can't seem to shake them. They cause anxiety and worry. They cause sadness and frustration. But they do not consume me. They seem as though they might, but the Spirit sweeps in at just the right time and rescues me from falling into a state of despair. I am lifted up out of the muck and the mire and shown the great love God has for me. Today I am reminded of the compassion of Jesus in the way He shows up in my world on a daily basis through those around me. Situations that occur to remind me of how much I am loved and that I am never alone, even when it seems so. Every day is a new day with Jesus. He is all I need and He continues to show me that day after day. Where will Jesus show up in your day today to show you His compassion?
