TRUSTING IN THE LORD'S MERCY

TRUSTING IN THE LORD'S MERCY


I don't have a lot
Of REGRETS
In my life=
I think
MOST of the time
I made the right decision
On matters


RIGHT? No sense HOLDING
On to the past=we
Have to move on=
And LIVE as best
As we can=
With the CARDS
We have been dealt


I usually FORGIVE OTHERS=
But sometimes=it is hard
NOT to hold on to a GRUDGE


“Should you not have
Had pity
On your FELLOW SERVANT


As I had
Pity on you?” Matthew 18:33


And that is the WAY
God our Father=IS=
He has pity on us
And MERCY on us
AT ALL TIMES


TRUST in the Lord's MERCY
For us all


And he will forgive you
AS YOU FORGIVE OTHERS


“For the Lord
Your God is
A MERCIFUL GOD


And he will
NOT abandon or destroy you
Or forget the covenant
With your ancestors


Which is confirmed
To them=by oath” Deuteronomy 4:31


“But in your GREAT MERCY
You did not
Put an end
To them or abandon them


For you are a gracious
And MERCIFUL GOD” Nehemiah 9:31


TRUSTING in the
LORD'S MERCY=
Trust in the GREAT FORGIVENESS
Of God our Father


Sometimes too
We are too HARD
On ourselves


Sometimes we need
TO FORGIVE OURSELVES too


The OUR FATHER
REMINDS us that=
God forgives us
As we FORGIVE OTHERS


Forgiveness is
A TWO-WAY STREET


“Jesus answered'=
'I tell you
NOT seven times=
But seventy-seven times'” Matthew 18:22


IF we do not not FORGIVE OTHERS=
We will not be forgiven


But if we DO=
We can TRUST
IN the Lord's MERCY


And to show others= his great MERCY
IN RETURN


In Jesus' name=and in the name=of our EVER FORGIVING FATHER
