LIVING WITH LOVE AND WITH MERCY

 






LIVING WITH LOVE AND WITH MERCY


As CHRISTIANS=our calling

Is to live

With LOVE AND MERCY

For every other individual

In this world


Saint Paul tell us

About faith-hope-and LOVE=

And the GREATEST of all

IS LOVE


And when we live

With love=we INCLUDE

MERCY for all living things


“So faith-hope-LOVE REMAIN

And the greatest of all

These is LOVE........” 1 Corinthians 13:13


Demonstrating love!

And at every CHRISTIAN wedding

We read=

Saint Paul's REMARKABLE

Definition of love


I know=

Because I have read it

At a couple of weddings myself=

And of course=

I try to live it

And with MERCY TOO


“LOVE is patient=

Love is kind=

It does not envy-

It dose not boast-

It is not proud-

It does NOT dishonor others-

It is not self-seeking


It is not easily angered

It keeps NO RECORD of wrongs


LOVE does not delight

In evil=but rejoices

With the truth=

It always protects=always trusts=

Always hopes=

Always perseveres=

LOVE NEVER FAILS!” 1 Corinthians 13:4-8


And if we are LIVING

In love with all others=

We are living

With MERCY

For all others too


“Give thanks to the Lord-

For he is good-

FOR HIS MERCY endures forever” Psalm 118:1


It is a BLESSING

To know

That the LORD'S LOVE

And mercy for us

ENDURE FOREVER


The Lord lives with love

For us=and he gives

With it MERCY & JUSTICE

For each of us

In this world


Although=it seems

Sometimes our JUSTICE

Is a long time in coming


Jesus preached about MERCY

From the beginning

Of his public life

UNTIL DEATH=

And he lived with mercy too


Jesus even OFFERED mercy

And forgave a guilty thief

As well as the Roman soldiers


“Remember Lord

YOUR GREAT MERCY and LOVE

For they are from

Of old” Psalm 25:6


We REJOICE that the

LORD is MERCIFUL to us=

As such=we are to

TREAT OTHERS=in a like manner


Go out TODAY and live a life

FULL OF love and mercy

IMITATE JESUS!


In Jesus' name and in the name of our FOREVER LIVING FATHER
