New mercies every day.

This is us.

We dont always get it right, in marriage, in parenting, in leading our family well, in cherishing every moment. There’s a lot of mistakes and a lot of asking forgiveness and seeking grace around our house. This season of still having “littles” feels really hard a lot of times. The days seem like they go so dang slow, but then we look up and it’s trash day again (it’s funny I know, but I always have the sinking feeling that yet another week of life has gone by, when it comes time to wheel our trash bins out. I hate trash days.)

I’m not saying we don’t do anything right or that we don’t have some days are just magical to be a parent - we have those too. But something we really DO do well, on the regular? Starting each day anew. Starting fresh. Letting go of the day before, and basking in the new mercies for EACH of us, and asking Him to shower it on us...teaching (and more importantly: showing) our children that the grace of Jesus is available every single day, and at every single moment.

Not sure who needs to hear this...but there are brand new mercies, y’all. Every. Dang. Day.

“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end. They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness!” Lamentations 3:22-23
