THERE IS A BETTER WAY TO LIVE=
LIVE WITH MERCY AND COMPASSION


Today=on my 63^rd BIRTHDAY=I want
To REMIND YOU ALL
That there is a BETTER WAY
To LIVE


Show MERCY AND COMPASSION=pay it
FORWARD=LIVE with LOVE=forget bitterness
Forget revenge


There is a BETTER WAY
To live


(Saul said to David)=”For if a man
MEETS his enemy=
Does he send him away UNHARNED?


May the Lord always REWARD you=generously=
For WHAT you have done
THIS DAY” 1 Samuel 24:20


Other than Jesus' own life=there is
No better way of LIVING with
MERCY and COMPASSION


Than David=SPARING Saul's life
Over and over again


DESPITE the fact that Saul
Was TRYING to kill David


PAY IT FORWARD=live
With MERCY AND COMPASSION


“Remember Lord=
Your great mercy and love


For they are from
Of old” Psalm 25:6


“BLESSED are the merciful
For they
Will be SHOWN MERCY” Matthew 5:7


“But because
Of his GREAT LOVE
For us


God=who is rich
In MERCY
Made us ALIVE
With Christ


EVEN when we were dead
In transgressions


It is by GRACE
You have been SAVED” Ephesians 2:4-5


And we should SHOW
That same grace=that same MERCY
That same love
To others=David did


THERE is a BETTER WAY
To live=PAY IT FORWARD=
Your love and compassion


It was PAYBACK TIME
For Saul=David's BIG CHANCE to
Get even


To TAKE Saul out of his life
For good=but INSTEAD
David offered MERCY and the CHANCE
For RECONCILIATION


David only CLIPPED Saul's robe
And SHOWED COMPASSION


“ALL this is from God
Who RECONCILED us to himself
Through CHRIST


And gave us
The ministry of RECONCILIATION=


That God was reconciling
The WORLD to himself
In CHRIST


NOT counting people's sins
Against them


And he has COMMITTED US to
The MESSAGE OF RECONCILIATION” 2 Corinthians 5:18-19


PAY FORWARD love=mercy=and
COMPASSION=it is the ONLY
WAY to live


It is the BETTER WAY
