I don’t know about you, but I love new beginnings. They are celebrated around the world every New Year. I am so thankful for those, but more importantly I am thankful for “New Mornings.” The other day, before I opened my eyes, I was thanking God for His love, His majesty, His light, and the life He has given me. When I opened my eyes, there was the most gorgeous reddish–orange sunrise. I was overwhelmed by His majesty! I watched it as it took over the morning sky. I grabbed my camera to try and capture its beauty. When I looked at the photo it didn’t come close to what I had seen… and then it was gone and the sky was blue. As we enter this New Year and every new day, let’s focus on the One who is the Author of new beginnings in all that he has made (that includes me and you). Ask Him to open your eyes to His majesty, His grace, His unfailing love, and the plans he has for you. I encourage you to practice this in the days ahead. Open your heart and life to Him. His mercies are new every morning. He is calling you to “Come.”
