Mercy: compassion (human or divine, especially active) kind or forgiving treatment of someone who could be treated harshly
James exhorted believers of Christ Jesus to be mindful that mercy triumphs over judgement. This truth is demonstrated by God toward all mankind in that while we were dead in our trespasses and sin Christ died for us. God is merciful. (full of mercy)
Remember the words of our Lord Jesus, blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy.
How often have each of us needed, pleaded for and/or relied on the mercy of God? Even so, should we not also extend the same mercy to others?
I am forever mindful of God’s mercy as He forgives. My earnest desire for us as the body of Christ the church is that we too would be merciful (full of mercy) to all.
