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)
