Our Scripture reading today is Micah 7:18, "Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and
passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy."
The mercy of God is really amazing, but difficult to comprehend. God is holy, yet He is
merciful to sinners. The holy One is merciful to all the unholy ones. Mercy has been
defined by some as not getting what someone deserves. Sinners deserve to punished.
Romans 6:23a, "For the wages of sin is death." God extends His mercy to sinners through
Jesus Christ. Romans 6:23b, "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our
Lord."
This daily provision of mercy is available to all who will receive it. God's mercies are
new to us each and every day. Take time to give Him thanks for He is delighting in
showing you mercy today!
