Good morning, Pastor John.<\/span><\/p>\n

I sat here this morning and watched the sunrise, just taking a minute to breathe it in.\u00a0 It was beautiful.\u00a0 I thought of the verses of His mercy being new every morning.\u00a0 I wanted to read the verses with “morning” in them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As I read down the first few verses from Genesis, the word “so<\/strong>” 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.\u00a0 It says it a few times in Gen 1 that “God saw that it was good, so”….\u00a0 Something about that struck me.<\/span><\/p>\n

At some point, God will see that it is bad, and there will not be another morning.\u00a0 God told us it will be that way, and that, in itself, is His mercy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

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.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you go home before me, I will miss writing you.\u00a0 You have been my pen pal in Jesus for many years now, since 2011.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Have a wonderful day from Jesus!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beth<\/span><\/p>\n

Genesis 1:5.\u00a0 And God called the light \u201cday\u201d, and He called the darkness \u201cnight\u201d. So, there was evening, and there was morning, the first day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Genesis 1:8.\u00a0 And God called the expanse \u201cheaven\u201d. So, there was evening, and there was morning, the second day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Genesis 1:13. So, there was evening, and there was morning, the third day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Genesis 1:19. So, there was evening, and there was morning, the fourth day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Genesis 1:23. So, there was evening, and there was morning, the fifth day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Genesis 1:31.\u00a0 And God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good. So, there was evening, and there was morning, the sixth day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lamentations 3:<\/span><\/p>\n

22. \u2026the tender mercies of Jehovah. Yea, we are not consumed because His compassions do not fail;<\/span><\/p>\n

23. they are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness!<\/span><\/p>\n

Psalm 145:9\u00a0The Lord is good to all, and\u00a0His\u00a0tender\u00a0mercies\u00a0are over all\u00a0His\u00a0works.<\/span><\/p>\n

Psalm 92:2\u00a0to make known your lovingkindness in the\u00a0morning\u00a0and your faithfulness\u00a0every\u00a0night<\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you, Beth.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

While we can, let us all love one another and take care one another’s heart.\u00a0 Life is short, and every opportunity to do good is precious.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
