April 20, 2023 at 11:41 amThe gift of grace can often be taken for granted. God’s grace is a gift to us, His mercy offered to us should never be viewed as a right of ours. Thomas a’Kempis was a 15 century monk and the author of THE IMITATION OF CHRIST. He refers to Romans 5:20-21, (message translation), ALL THAT PASSING LAWS AGAINST SIN DID WAS PRODUCE LAWBREAKERS. BUT SIN DIDN’T, AND DOESN’T, HAVE A CHANCE IN COMPETITION WITH THE AGGRESSIVE FORGIVENESS WE CALL GRACE. WHEN IT’S SIN VERSUS GRACE, GRACE WINS HANDS DOWN. ALL SIN CAN DO IS THREATEN US WITH DEATH, AND THAT’S THE END OF IT. GRACE, BECAUSE GOD IS PUTTING EVERYTHING TOGETHER AGAIN THROUGH THE MESSIAH, INVITES US INTO LIFE, A LIFE THAT GOES ON AND ON AND ON, WORLD WITHOUT END. How marvelous, how great is this GRACE afforded to us as sinners. It tells us where sin abounds, grace abounds more. Today think about the gift of grace God affords us. Also, think about the grace you afford to others as your days go along. Offer grace to those around you, expect nothing in return but the joy you experience as you walk in His grace. Be Blessed. 🙏 Gods Chosen OneGA 🙏🙏

April 20, 2023 at 1:09 pmBecause of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.” – Luke 1:78-79

April 20, 2023 at 1:11 pmMercy is not often my first response when someone offends me or does something that irritates me. I know Jesus said, “Blessed are the merciful,” but sometimes I want to get back at people, or at least make them understand why they’re driving me crazy. I forget the mercy God has shown me. His mercy is what made God send His only Son into the world to redeem sinners. Mercy is what made Jesus Christ, the light of the world, come down to earth to give light to those in darkness. Mercy for sinners is what led Jesus to die on the cross to pay for our sin.

April 20, 2023 at 1:12 pmI wish I could have been there when Zechariah prophesied at the birth of his son, John the Baptist. Moved by God’s Spirit, Zechariah knew John would go before the Lord, who would visit His people to redeem them. He foresaw that John would proclaim repentance and the forgiveness of sins. All “because of the tender mercy of our God” (Luke 1:78). So often we come to God asking for our needs and praying He will show mercy and grant our requests. We forget to thank God for the mercy He has already shown us. We know from Scripture that our Heavenly Father invites us to bring our needs before Him, yet He also desires thanks and praise for what He has already done.

April 20, 2023 at 1:12 pmAs we approach the Lord today, let’s remember the tender mercy He has shown to us in the person of Jesus Christ. Let’s thank Him for countless prayers already answered, countless blessings already given, and the grace Jesus extended to us by giving His life for us while we were still His enemies. What if we also ask God to make us aware of people in our lives to whom we need to extend mercy and grace? Whether we need to have patience with that person who cuts in front of us at the grocery store checkout or forgive someone who hurt us deeply, God will give us the grace we need. Luke 6:36 calls us to “Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.”

April 20, 2023 at 1:16 pmLet’s pray together: Heavenly Father, I praise you for your great mercy. Thank you for sending your Son Jesus to die on the cross for my sins. Thank you for shining your light into my heart and giving me the gift of eternal life. I praise you for your steadfast love and faithfulness to me. Lord, forgive me for the many times I come to you in prayer, forgetting the mercy you have already shown me. Renew in my heart a deep sense of gratitude for the forgiveness I have in Christ. Forgive me for all the times I withhold compassion and forgiveness from others. Would you work in my heart and make me more like you? Lord, give me the grace I need to see the people in my life through your eyes. Pour out your compassion into my heart that I may reflect it to others today. Guide my feet in the way of peace. Amen 🙏 A Prayer to Show God’s Mercy to Others By Betsy de Cruz. Betsy’s prayer blessed me and I felt it will bless my dab siblings so I’m sharing her heart with us. Shalom 😊 🙏GCOGA 🙏🙏😊😊🙏🙏🙏

April 21, 2023 at 7:14 amThank you for this entry and prayer. What a blessing! I pray that we can be little sponges for the Holy spirit. I just want to soak in all that I can hold and be totally tuned in to His direction and be a brighter light.
