January 28
He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
There are going to be days when we feel we just can't do it. Everywhere we turn, there is another temptation, another chance to blow it. Occasionally, we might even give in, but that is no reason to give up. Part of being human means we won't succeed every time we try something. That's okay. When we find ourselves in situations where we give in, that is when we need to call on God, asking for forgiveness, strength, and determination. God shall send forth His mercy and His truth, and we will be able to pick up from where we left off and do even better the next time.
Today's thought: Losing one battle doesn't mean I've lost the war!
