For I am merciful...


Show mercy to another...
what exactly does that mean?

Compassion or kindly forbearance is shown to an enemy.

Over and over God shows His people mercy...

Over and over His people look to other gods...idols man made of stone, precious metals, but man made items...

Today, when I looked for my picture for mercy over and over I was looking at pictures of false gods. The picture would be titled god of mercy or some such title...TODAY we still get other things placed before God.

When you think of mercy, what comes to your mind? Who do you need to show more mercy? Who do you need to practice offering mercy?

Thank goodness for God's mercy or absolutely none of us would ever see eternal life! Are we praising God for His Mercy? The gift He offers us every moment we get by - do we give thanks? Do we offer mercy to another in response to the gift we are given?

"Kings in this world should imitate God, their mercy should be above their works." William Penn Indeed we should all offer forgiveness and compassion first and foremost then we should offer our hand in love the same way God gives it to us!

Sweet blessings,
Debbie
