Grace and Mercy

For He is gracious to the ungrateful and evil. Be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful. Luke 6:35b, 36

Grace and mercy! Grace and mercy! Even as you have received, give. (Matthew 10:8)

The measure you give will be given back to you, pressed down, shaken together will be poured into your lap. Luke 6:38

These scriptures do not just relate to finance. In all that we give, we will receive.

What are you giving? Goodness, mercy? Or bitterness, anger and judgement?

Recently I had a harsh judgement made against me by a manager, it hurt and was unfair. I was angry with this man yet I must look to myself. What have I been giving? And how can I change things?

On Thursday this manager is coming to visit me, I am convicted that I must be a blessing. These are the times, when tested, that we must sow righteousness and the flesh is definitely not righteous.

At times like these I turn towards The Lord and ask for His grace and mercy, He alone is good! Amen!
