Fresh Start, Positive Heart

A seven-time World Champion, often regarded as one of the greatest F1 drivers in history, Lewis Hamilton stated, “A negative mind will never give you a positive life.”

Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

– Lamentations 3:22-23 NIV

The wisdom of Lewis Hamilton aligns beautifully with the verse above from the Book of Lamentations. Despite the challenges you encounter, God’s love for you is constant and His mercy never-ending.

The morning brings renewal, not only of the day, but also of your mind and heart.

Each new day is God’s gift of a fresh start – an opportunity to redefine your outlook, to embrace positivity and to reject tenacles of negativity that threaten to consume you. The morning brings renewal, not only of the day, but also of our minds and hearts.

Lamentations 3:22 calls for us to acknowledge our suffering but not to dwell in it, encouraging us to remain positive and trust in God’s plan. Even amidst the writer’s lamentation, he acknowledges the unending compassion of God. He speaks of hardships, yes, but also of the overwhelming positivity derived from God’s unwavering love and faithfulness.

Today’s One Thing

Begin each day as a new canvas, washed clean of yesterday’s woes. Before you rise from bed each morning, take a few moments to meditate on God’s great love for you and acknowledge His compassion that is renewed every morning. Remind yourself that every new day brings fresh opportunities for positivity and growth.
