Mercy! Who needs it? The better question is: Who doesn’t need it?
To the church at Rome Paul wrote. . .
“(30) For just as you were at one time disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience, (31) so they too have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may now receive mercy. (32) For God has consigned all to disobedience, that he may have mercy on all.” (Romans 11:30-32 ESV)
Paul made it abundantly clear throughout the Roman letter that everyone, whether Jew or Gentile, was in need of God’s mercy. We must be humble enough to both admit it and to accept it. Here is one of God’s greatest desires for dealing with us even now! God has a greater desire to offer mercy than punishment. Therefore, we ought to recognize the gift and respond to Him in accordance with His Will.
Have a great day MOVED BY HIS MARVELOUS MERCY!
