Good morning, Pastor John.
I sat here this morning and watched the sunrise, just taking a minute to breathe it in. It was beautiful. I thought of the verses of His mercy being new every morning. I wanted to read the verses with “morning” in them.
As I read down the first few verses from Genesis, the word “so” stood out to me, and then I read Gen 1:31 and it hit my heart that because God saw all that He had made and it was good, there was a 7th day. It says it a few times in Gen 1 that “God saw that it was good, so”…. Something about that struck me.
At some point, God will see that it is bad, and there will not be another morning. God told us it will be that way, and that, in itself, is His mercy.
I just wanted to take a minute, while we both are here with another morning before us, to say I love you and write out my thoughts of God to you.
If you go home before me, I will miss writing you. You have been my pen pal in Jesus for many years now, since 2011.
Have a wonderful day from Jesus!
Beth

22. …the tender mercies of Jehovah. Yea, we are not consumed because His compassions do not fail;
23. they are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness!

Thank you, Beth.
While we can, let us all love one another and take care one another’s heart. Life is short, and every opportunity to do good is precious.
