The Chaplain's Corner

by Scarlett Griffin, Chaplain


LAMENTATIONS 3:23 “Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning".


To waken each morning knowing God’s grace is true and His promises eternal invites sunshine into our days. I was an “early riser” until I retired. Then I developed a habit of grumbling and wanting to sleep in. Instead, practicing “a positive attitude,” by inviting Him into the start of each morning can reverse that practice. God’s faithfulness brings blessings and peace and a day full of promise. Amen
