New Every Morning

I'm done! I cannot do this anymore! I'm at the end of my rope! 

You walk away and lower yourself into the chair. You're fed up with the problems and difficulties of the day. Later, in the sanctity of your room, you pour out your problems to whoever will listen. If no one's listening, you just say things out loud to yourself. The pent-up tears flow freely now. All you want to do is sleep. But the looming question which keeps you up is "How will I face tomorrow?"

"(His mercies) are new every morning...." Lamentations 3:23

God gives us just enough grace to get through today. Whatever may come your way today, God's got you covered. He never gives us more than we can handle through His grace.

"Today's mercies are for today's troubles. Tomorrow's mercies are for tomorrow's troubles." ~ John Piper
That is why you may feel like you're ready to die at the end of one day, but then ready to take on the world the next morning. You've used today's resources; tomorrow, the mercies will be new.

"Great is your faithfulness." Lamentations 3:23b
