This is the hour to strike your courage and renew your commitment to Jesus, no matter what failures and disappointments you’ve encountered in yourself, the Church, or your circumstances. Our God is the God of new beginnings. As it says in the book of Lamentations:

The Lord’s acts of mercy are not exhausted, his compassion is not spent; they are renewed each morning—great is your faithfulness! (3:22-23)

Remember always… you are loved.
