Being Renewed Daily

Even though our outer bodies may be growing older, in Christ our inner being is being renewed day by day. Life has its struggles—mistakes, regrets, and shortcomings—but we don’t have to carry yesterday’s weight into today. God, in His mercy, gives us a new beginning every morning.

“Therefore we do not lose courage. Though our outer self is heading for decay, our inner self is being renewed day by day.”

—2 Corinthians 4:16 (CJB)

Don’t let yesterday’s failures linger. Don’t waste today worrying about what you can’t change. Time is a gift, and each new sunrise is proof of God’s grace—a chance to stand up, thank Him, and live fully for Christ. Every day is a fresh opportunity to be a little better than you were the day before.

So rise, beloved of God, with gratitude in your heart. You are forgiven. You are being renewed. And today is your day to live for Him.
