New Beginnings

"Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing"  -- Isaiah 43:18-19 / New King James Version

Each new day offers countless opportunities to serve God, to seek His will, and to obey His teachings. But each day also offers countless opportunities to stray from God's commandments and to wander far from His path.

Sometimes, we wander aimlessly in a wilderness of our own making, but God has better plans for us. And, whenever we ask Him to renew our strength and guide our steps, He does so.  Consider this day a new beginning.  Consider it a fresh start, a renewed opportunity to serve your Creator with willing hands and a loving heart. Ask God  to renew your sense of purpose as He guides your steps. Today is a glorious opportunity to serve your Father in Heaven. Seize  that opportunity while you can; tomorrow may indeed be too late.

Lord, conform us to Your image. Create in us a clean heart, a new heart that reflects Your love for us. When we need to change, change us, Lord, and make us new.
