devotion

I love my devotional, New Morning Mercies by Paul David Tripp. I have a couple of copies, hard and soft back and I have it on my Kindle for when I am travelling. This is the 3rd year I have read it and it still has days that speak to me. I loved today’s devotion so I thought I would share it.

Don’t waste your time in envy. You always have what you need because God’s faithfulness is never tainted by partiality.

In a world of

justice gone bad,

where disloyalty brings

daily pain,

where government is

corrupt,

and even faithful friends

come up short;

where the haves get more

and the have-nots wonder why;

and where is it very

tempting

to look over the fence

at someone else’s life

and wonder why

so much good

has fallen on him,

it is so good to know that You

never play favorites.

You lavish riches of grace

on each and every one

of Your children.

You meet every child’s

every need,

and You do it with unbroken

faithfulness.

So I will quit keeping score.

I will not judge Your goodness.

No, I WILL REST IN THE BOUNTY OF YOUR MERCY.

To read more and be encouraged read Psalm 84.

Confident in His love

Isaiah 54:10
