Every Day is a new day. I love that. No matter how terribly a day can go, no matter how many regrets I may have about my decisions, I know I can can leave that behind and start fresh each day. Sometimes I really need that Fresh Start on a daily basis (and if I am really being honest, multiple times a day!!!!) I lost my temper, I don't get things checked off my to-do list that I should, I eat waaaaaay to much (I really love food), the list goes on and on.
Yesterday I went a little too gung-ho on my workout. I paid for it the rest of the day and today I can barely move. Oops. So I started today with a more relaxing/stretching/repairing workout so I can try again tomorrow! My devotion this morning was Day 2 of the Reset with Jesus. It talked about how messed up our world can be, but that no matter what choices we have made and what has happened to us, it is never too late for a Fresh Start. We can have that Reset and put our focus back on Jesus. I am thankful for that. I may need a fresh start frequently, but I also know I will never quit. All Jesus asks is that we put our faith and trust in Him. We don't have to come to Him perfect or in a certain way. He just wants us to come. So I will daily fall on my knees and come to Him. I know I don't deserve it, I never will, but Jesus took care of that for me.
"And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who had called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you." 1 Peter 5:10
Our lives were never promised to be easy, but God ALWAYS promised to be with us.
