God of new mercies, I thank You that each morning brings a fresh start. Yesterday is behind me, with its mistakes and missed opportunities, and today stretches out before me full of possibility. Help me to leave behind regret and to step forward with hope. I know I will stumble again—I'm human, and I'm learning—but I trust that Your grace is bigger than my failures. Today, help me to be kind to myself and to others. Help me to listen more than I speak, to notice more than I overlook. When I feel overwhelmed, remind me to take one step at a time. When I feel alone, remind me that You are near. Thank You for not giving up on me, even when I give up on myself. I place this day in Your hands, trusting that You will guide me through it.
