The Gift of Mercy

79) Mercy is not getting a punishment we deserve. Daniel reminds us that we can come to God with our requests not because of our righteousness (you know, those filthy rags?) but because of His mercy. It’s a gift, not an obligation. Daniel 9:18

I’m Not Who I Was

78) Looking back on my life, I cringe. Not for long when I remind myself that I’m not who I was. God has given me a new heart & a new spirit. He’s given them to you, too, if your name is in the Book of Life.  Ez 36:26; John 3:16; Rev. 20:15

Redemption! An Expensive Word

77) God is in the redemption business. He wants to redeem all people, no matter what they have done. It’s His gift through His Son. No gift is yours until you accept it. Thank God for His redemption; it cost Him Jesus’ life.  Ezekiel 33:11 John 3:16

God Takes No Pleasure in Our Pain

76)  For some, it is satisfying to see someone who has wronged you be given their “just deserts.” God NEVER takes pleasures in our pain or death; even when we brought it on ourselves. He loves us and wants us to do the right things. Ez 18:32

Compassion, Each Day

75)  The act of compassion (and, yes, it is a verb) is scarce these days. It is a choice to see with God’s eyes rather than our judgmental ones. God’s love and compassion for us and others are new every morning. Lamentations 3:22-23

No Call Waiting

 74) People are so busy these days so I am reluctant to take any additional time from their days. God has no such reluctancy. He asks you to call on Him and He always answers. He yearns to share time with you. Jeremiah 33:3

Life is Hard

73) Some days I come home, barely able to put one foot in front of the other. This is true spiritually, as well. Life is hard; it’s a fact but for God, NOTHING is too hard. Lean on Him; He longs to hold you up.  Jer 32:17

Forgive and Forget?

72) As Christians, we are commanded to forgive. This difficult task is even harder because we do not have the ability to forget on demand. God does not forgive on demand either; He chooses to forgive & remembers our sin no more. Rejoice!  Jer 31:34

Love Beyond the Grave

71)  Perfect love is powerful because it has a level playing field. You don’t move up the love ladder by actions, words, money, or status. God’s love is your just because you are you. This love is not conditional; it’s eternal.  Jer 31:3

What Seems Versus What Is

70) Looking at a brown puzzle piece, it’s easy to conclude the picture is of mud. In reality, the picture is a mountain range, regal & majestic. God’s plans for you may seem like mud but they are always part of the beautiful good. Have hope!  Jer 29:11
