Compassion Let Israel now say, that his mercy endures forever. Psalm 118:2 Sometimes it seems like there's no hope and things don't seem to go our way. We lose our wallet, our car breaks down, or we don't hear our alarm clock go off and we miss an important meeting. There are also situations that we are put into that seem too hard for us to handle alone. In these times, we need assistance and that is when God's mercy comes to us. No matter what we have done, God's mercy is there for us. Although trials and tribulations come, God's mercy will always be there for us. Mercy means "having compassion for the miserable." So the most important concept that accompanies mercy is compassion that God has for us. By the atoning sacrifice of Christ, a way is open for us to receive compassion, mercy, truth and righteousness. God's compassion for us is so great that his mercy endures forever. During this Lenten season, remember to always put God first and to place your total trust in him. Demetris Render Prayer: God, I know there are times when things seem so hard to handle or it seems like people are always beating up on me emotionally and spiritually, but through it all I will place my trust in you for I know your mercy endures forever. Amen.
