Today is a brand new beginning for me!

Whoever you are, wherever you are, whatever you've been through, it's never too late to begin again.

don't have to give in to those things that would keep you from the life God has for you—you may have in your past, but you don't have to in your future. You can begin again! Jesus is sending away your accusers and offering you a new chance today. Today can be a brand-new start.

Power Thought: God is faithful; my hope in Him is unwavering.

As you walk with God, you can always begin again. It is never too late for a fresh start. Your history does not have to be your destiny! Believe

Think about the times God has been there for you, times He has rescued you, times He has provided for you, and times He has shown you His love to be reminded that He is faithful.

I wake up expecting to enjoy my day.

God will give us the grace to deal with tomorrow, but He won't give it to us until tomorrow gets here.

The first commandment is a declaration that the God of the exodus is unlike all the gods the slaves have known heretofore. This God is not to be confused with or thought parallel to the insatiable gods of imperial productivity. This God is subsequently revealed as a God of mercy, steadfast love, and faithfulness who is committed to covenantal relationships of fidelity (see Exod. 34:6—7).

George MacDonald, the nineteenth-century British preacher and author, said, "It is not the cares of today, but the cares of tomorrow, that weigh a man down. For the needs of today we have corresponding strength given. For the morrow we are told to trust. It is not ours yet. It is when tomorrow's burden is added to the burden of today that the weight is more than a man can bear.

The heart of the Father is always to put us back on track, a little wiser, and ever grateful for another chance.

Sometimes going back to the beginning is the only way.
