6/365: Every Day Brings a Second Chance

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

Can you hear what God is saying? "Because of His great love, we are not consumed!" God doesn't see failure or frustration... He sees a beloved son! That's you!

Letn us begin the day...forgiven. Live like a man given another chance with a clean slate. God's compassion is brand new every day.

Every morning is New Year's Day to God. Pray to receive it for yourself and pray for others to receive it.

GO DEEPER: Hebrews 10: 19-23

NEXT STEP: Fully embrace the fact that God has foriven you for whatever it is that haunts you. Write down the one thing you've asked God to forgive - then physically throw it into the trash can. It's gone. Receive this blessing.

Jesus loves us unconditionally just as we are but he loves us too much to leave us there. All he asks of us is to earnestly seek him and keep the faith

If we could live every day as though it may be the very last one before the final judgment, what a difference it would make here on earth.

Have you ever experienced a close call or a favorable outcome to a biopsy? Life afterwards changes for a time. We’re more grateful, more generous, more mindful of the things that truly matter… for a time. Forgiveness gives us a new lease on life. Think about it. We were condemned to die. We deserved it. We could make promises to change, offer to give our money to the poor, whatever. There was nothing we could do to save ourselves from our well-deserved fates. But God intervened. Jesus took the death penalty for each of us. We have been given a new lease on life! And a new lease on life is available anytime. God is good and plenteous in merry and ready to forgive. Brothers, let’s not squander our new lease on life. Let’s daily live bold for God in the knowledge that were forgiven and that, if we do sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Christ, our Brother—and that, WHEN we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Here’s to a new lease on life today, brothers!

dear LORD, forgive me for my lack of a path you have set for me. Help me be faithful so I may be a better example for those around me so they may see your work within me... Amen

The forgiveness and the hope we have in Christ is a precious gift. I pray that I can share it with others who do not know Him. Amen

Nicely said, Marv. I like the picture you paint. Jesus I think is just like us, a regular guy in many ways. But he is also pure love - and courage, and discipline, and faith, and compassion, and humility. And best of all, he's on our side and right by our side! That thought gives me confidence to face the day, and whatever the world wants to throw at me along the way. It doesn't eliminate the struggle, but it makes it much easier to fight the good fight, and strive continually to be the man Jesus wants me to be. I've got a long way to go, but with Jesus by my side, I feel good about the prospects... God bless you, Brothers. Keep the faith!

Michael “Winning the War in Your Mind” really helped me to wrap my head around why it’s so much easier to get a head full of lies than hold on to the truth. The enemy is constantly attacking us and presenting us with lies, temptations, and turmoil through others. Even Jesus was not immune to the enemies attempts. When it comes to the truth, however, I must be in constant seek mode. I look at it like if I were a large cup, and I must seek to fill my cup with the truth of God’s word each morning, and throughout the day the enemy is constantly trying to poke holes and drain me. Good news is, the longer I’ve been earnestly seeking God in my morning routines, the less holes the enemy is able to successfully poke through, and the more at peace day to day I achieve. The other amazing thing that’s important to remember, is I can start my day over as many times as I’d like. I can fill my cup anytime I want. I can be as sloppy as I wish, sloshing the Holy Spirit here and there, blessing everyone around me as I walk through my day. Just a big ‘ol food fight of Holy Spirit 😅🙏🏻❤️‍🩹

As we walk with Jesus, by His side, on life’s path, the enemy tries his best to pull us away from Him. He places trippers on the path. He tries to draw our attention away from Christ. He focuses on our weak points and exploits them. When we trip and fall he is right there accusing us and kicking us, never offering to help us up. Jesus comes to us, lifts us up, dusts us off, and wraps His arm around our shoulders and says, “I love you and I forgive you. Let’s walk on together.” His incredible love always reaches out and forgives. FORGIVEN!!! Let that soak in my brothers.

God had forgiven us and Jesus has showed us we are Victors over Satan. Let us boldly go forward praising God and being the men we were designed to be. Love you Jesus! 🧡💚💙❤️

it is amazing how God is working in my life. Knowing the truth is one thing but believing is powerful and life changing. God has been working in my life over the past 2.5 months to amazing glorious results. I thank God and those that really care about me that they never gave up. Thank you God for being a loving - forgiving God. Use me as your servant I am willing so please send me.

Amazing how the truths are so much harder to hold onto than the lies! The truth is we are loved by God! We are chosen and sought after by God! We are known and accepted by God! Jesus is deeply involved with every aspect of our daily lives! Our future is absolutely wonderful! Everything that was lost will one day be restored to us! The power that raised Jesus from the dead lives inside of us!! We matter to God! And those are but just a few of the truths we should remind ourselves of daily!!! Strength and courage men!!

Good reminder for me as well - God insists on our joy so when we wallow in shame or feelings of inadequacy- we are not living in gods vision for us - I believe there is a song that helps illustrate this - don’t worry be happy! I have my days for sure but is nice to know that god insists on US being happy and joyous!!

There is a Devine reason for this reading to come after yesterdays reading. I read through all the comments on Day 5 and I am right there with everyone. Mediocre feeling, lustful thoughts, inadequacy around others at times, should be a better Son, Husband, Dad and Disciple. It’s overwhelming at times but each day is a new start for all of us. Sometimes I feel praying is not enough, like I need to do more. I am going to try speaking scripture / sayings out loud in front of a mirror. God loves me, I am forgiven, I am worthy, I surrender to you, God make me the man you want me to be, Help me be more like Jesus. I want to see if this takes me to the next level of progressive sanctification. God loves everyone of us on here. He wants our hearts to love Him and others. I pray we can all start each day with hope and forgiveness for ourselves. Have an awesome day gents!
