Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. (Matthew 5:7, ESV)
Join us in memorizing a verse a week for one year. That will be 52 verses you will memorize.
We all have basic needs. We all need forgiveness. We all need companionship. This life on earth is filled with great need. While your abundance may supply the needs of others today, there will come a time when you will rely on the abundance of others to supply your needs.
A general rule I have observed is that those who serve the needs of others, receive plenty of help in their time of need. Those who are only about their self-interest have more difficulty rallying people to their aid in their time of need.
Showing mercy starts with Jesus. The mercy we offer is derived from the mercy he gives us.
What is one practical way you can show mercy this day?
