Scripture focus: Lamentations 3:22–23 reminds us of mercy that is renewed day by day.
Recovery can make a person painfully aware of yesterday. Faith invites us to bring yesterday into the light without letting it become a prison. Grace does not ignore responsibility; it gives us the courage to face it.
Reflection: What would it look like to receive today as a new mercy rather than a punishment?
Prayer: God, help me accept the mercy available today. Give me courage for the next step and honesty for the path ahead. Amen.
