A New Day

READ: PSALM 56; LAMENTATIONS 3:22-23; JOHN 8:12

Here I am, Lord

Falling into the darkness

Waiting for someone to hear my cry

Here I am, wandering and broken

Dealing with the pains of my past

I want to see a comeback

I want to feel Your song

My soul needs to hear a note of hope

Here I am, calling to the Light

Feeling Your life reaching

To my broken and healing soul

Fighting for a fresh, new start

Just because I’m broken

Doesn’t mean I can’t be fixed

My past is gone

There’s a brand new future

I know there’s hope

Darkness can’t stay

You’ve given me this brand new day • Corinna Kahrs

• Have you ever felt like you were stuck in darkness, longing for a new day to start? Even in those dark places, Jesus—the Light of the world—is walking with you. He loves you, and someday He will return and His light will fill the whole earth, destroying darkness forever. How could these truths bring us hope and comfort in difficult times? 

• Jesus doesn’t want us to walk through difficulty alone. When you are going through a hard time, who can you talk to, such as parents, youth leaders, pastors, counselors, or friends?

For you rescued me from death, even my feet from stumbling, to walk before God in the light of life. Psalm 56:13 (CSB)
