Matthew 5:7
New International Version
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Who needs mercy today? I don’t know about you but I always need a lot of mercy. But to need a lot you also have to give more mercy and show people God’s love. Even though they don’t deserve it we are to give it.
Deuteronomy 15:10 says:
10 Give generously to them and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.
God provides the blessing, not mere instances of generosity. God blesses because of the generous heart that you have shown and invited the poor, grieving, meek, hungry, and thirsty. If Jesus had not given us mercy from our sins where would you and I be. We are all sinners saved by grace. God’s love and mercy is what will get us through so please today think of someone who really needs a lot of mercy and show it to them. They maybe having the worst day of their lives. We may be the only God they see.
I pray God bless you go in grace.
