Let’s Journey Together and spend a Moment with Father.
I’m Linda Goldfarb, and I want to encourage and inspire your walk with the Lord. For more encouragement, please visit LindaGoldfarb.com. I’m so glad you’re here.
What do you think when you hear the word mercy?
On several occasions as a kid, while wrestling, playing thumb wars, or engaging in other physically competitive activities, I cried out, “Mercy!”
All I wanted was a reprieve, a moment of rest, time to recoup, before we went at it again.
Today, cries for mercy are heard across the world for completely different reasons.
A defendant stands before a judge and begs for —mercy. He pleads his case, asking for leniency from the court.
A child stands before her parents, asking for forgiveness for taking the car out after curfew. She cries out for another chance.
A couple quarrels over unfaithfulness. A trembling wife stands with her back turned, arms crossed, tears streaming down her cheeks, listening. Her husband, on his knees, cries out, “It will never happen again. Please, please...”
My heart aches.
Yet, there is a mercy that transcends all forms of forgiveness.
Mercy is given not because we deserve it, promise to be better, or fear the outcome.
This mercy is the amazing, unmatchable love we read about in Lamentations.
“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23 ESV
God’s love.
My heart flutters in anticipation of experiencing the newness of the Lord and His mercies every morning.
How about you? How are you experiencing God’s mercy?
Take time today and cry out to God.
Thank Him for all He gives you, for all He protects you from, for all He guides you to. His mercy is great.
Let’s journey together.
O Lord! I come before you on bended knee.
Show me Your way.
Open my eyes to Your will.
Bring to my remembrance the joy of my salvation.
Renew in me a spirit of love for Your children.
Guide me to those who need Your precious mercy.
Give me the words to share—stories to tell.
Help me share the hope found in Your truth.
To Your glory, honor, and praise.
Hallelujah.
Do not merely listen to the word and so deceive yourselves; do what it says. James 1:22
May YHWH bless you, keep you, and guide you in all you do. Until next time, this is Linda Goldfarb, and I’m so glad we are on this journey together with Father.
