Know You Have Received Mercy

In Romans it says " God never changes his mind about the people he calls and the things he gives them...but know you have received mercy".

To the heart of a sinner these are the sweetest words they could hear. These are the sweetest words I could ever hear. I believed that I was called for something. I believe that I am only a part of this grand tapestry. But I lost sight of this belief. And with me getting lost, I thought too that I was scrapped of this grand plan. I thought that with my act of defiance I no longer would be included among the people that he has called his own.

This is a promise I call my own. To know that I have received mercy is a gift. To know that I have been forgiven by the one person who can forgive completely is a measure of how much I am loved. I pray that you too, in your individual lives, claim and realize this true joy.

Know, you have received mercy.
