CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The Lord knows that we are dust. Psalm 103:4 says, “for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust. The life of mortals is like grass, they flourish like a flower of the field; the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more.” The Lord knows we are but flesh and we will fail. With that in mind, I love the new year. It brings about a hope for a new year, a cool kind of energy and anticipation. But, because we are humans and dust, the hope and anticipation fades as we fail to meet our goals or resolutions and go back to doing the same old things we did last year. 

But! Because we are Christians, we know that the Lord is merciful and gracious. Lamentations 3:22-23 says, “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” So, even though the Lord knows that we will fail, He gives us new mercies every day, a new hope every day. We will fail to meet our goals. We will fail to be good husbands, good dads, good friends. We will fail in all areas some days. But for the Christian, we can wake up with a new hope every single day because of the Lord’s mercy towards us.
