" the Lord has told you what is good
and this is what he requires of you:
to do what is right, to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God"
What does God require of me?
"to do right"
"to love mercy"
What is mercy? The computer Dictionary says this:
"compassionate or kindly forbearance shown toward an offender, an enemy, or other person in one's power; compassion, pity, or benevolence:"
There are at least two sides to mercy.
God is merciful to us. His grace and mercy are much more than we will ever deserve.
How merciful toward others should we be?
Sure, God's mercy trumps ours every time,
but,
where we can,
He commands us
to go and do likewise.
Do Right
Love Mercy
