Do you sometimes feel like you just can’t go on?

LIVING THE SOLUTION WITH DAILY INSPIRATION
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22-23 — NIV)

Do you sometimes feel like you just can’t go on? You look at the things you struggle with and wonder how God can love you. You feel like such a failure.

God is not like you or any other person here on earth. He is always faithful, always compassionate, and always merciful. Unlike others and yourself He does not look at you each day with the same mercy and compassion that you tested yesterday. Each and every day they are renewed. When you got up today the love, grace, compassion and mercy that God exercises towards you is fresh; it’s been renewed. His patience is not strained from yesterday, but new and refreshed. It is only you who remembers, and those who know about it, how you messed up. God looks at you with a fresh heart. Remember how you felt the first time you entered into a personal relationship with Him? The love you felt, the cleanliness you felt, it was like life was just starting. That’s how each morning can, and should feel. Because God’s mercy and compassion are new and refreshed each day you get to start with a clean slate.

So don’t start today with yesterday’s baggage. Leave it behind. Today is a new day and God’s attitude towards you is new. Yesterday and its mistakes are gone. You can’t go back and change them, so learn from them. Today is here, let yesterday go and live today.

Live intentionally, purposely, free and with passion,

That is how I felt before coming into recovery. Stop the world, I want to get off. In AA, I found purpose and a reason for being. That is where I went for my recovery because of my denial. If I hadn't come to terms about my alcoholism, I would not be alive in today.
