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
God’s love never fails. It is unconditional—not earned, not negotiated, and not something I have to prove myself worthy of. It is rooted in who God is, not in how well I perform or if I deserve it.
That truth matters to me, especially on the days when I feel like I have fallen short. Seems like there are a lot of those days.
God loves me no matter how much I mess up or fail. That does not mean my choices do not matter, or that mistakes have no consequences. It means my failures do not cancel His faithfulness.
I still have responsibility. I still have to acknowledge my issues and be honest with myself about where I struggle. God’s love does not excuse what is broken in me, but it gives me the courage to face it. God’s love gives me the courage to rise for the ashes of my life like a phoenix.
What I find most comforting is that God does not grow tired of me. He never rolls His eyes and says “Look what she did this time.” Scripture says His mercies are new every morning, and I cling to that. Not occasionally new. Not only when I get things right. New every single day. Yesterday does not define today.
No matter what is happening around me, I can turn to Him. Life can feel loud, overwhelming, and unpredictable. Plans change. People disappoint. Situations spiral. God does not change (Hebrews 13:8)
God does not ask me to have it all figured out before I come to Him. He says bring my failures, hopes, and messes to him (Philippians 4:6-7). He desires a relationship with me—one that is real, honest, and ongoing, not performative or conditional. (Revelation 3:20)
That understanding shapes how I live. It affects how I see myself when I fail and how I extend grace to others. When I remember how patient God is with me, it becomes easier to show patience. When I remember how freely I am loved, it softens my heart.
Each morning is a chance to begin again, grounded in mercy and held by a love that does not change. That faithfulness is what carries me forward.
