In morning there is expectancy, but also a sense of weakness, even dread. Armies attack at dawn. Yet we also awake each morning to a sense of newness. Yesterday's troubles seem far away. The day is a small picture of the Christian life.
Today is the day of salvation.
The Christian is forgiven of the past and has hope for the future, but lives in the Spirit today. The follower of Jesus lives one day at a time. Every morning that I awaken reminds me of God's mercy, protection, and sovereignty. I was helpless in the night, but he protected me. He chose in His wisdom for me to live one more day.
