“I tell you the truth. All sins that people do can be forgiven.” Mark 3:28
Forgiveness is an attribute which comes easily for you. You have been blessed by both giving and receiving forgiveness. You understand the forgiveness of God because you have received it abundantly.
While you may sometimes fail to make the right choice, your decision to accept God’s forgiveness for the wrong ones, is always the right choice.
You are grateful for the opportunities to offer forgiveness to others.
While it is human nature to be concerned about the risks of being merciful, you believe there is a much greater risk to the human soul when one opts to become merciless.
You are grateful for the mercy of God which provides healing and restoration. Not only does He show mercy to the offender, but He also offers forgiveness for the wrong and cancelation of the debt.
Like your Creator, you do not keep score. The mercy and forgiveness you learned from Him, enables you to wipe the slate clean and give everyone a fresh start.
Your appreciation for the forgiveness you have received is best displayed by your willingness to offer it to others.
You are a merciful person and for that reason, as Jesus reported in the Sermon on the Mount, you are blessed and will receive mercy.
It has been said that the word blessed, could be best defined by the phrase, empowered to succeed.
You are successful because you show mercy and because mercy is shown to you.
Whether or not you do everything perfectly, is not what determines your success.
It is your gift of mercy which creates a firm foundation for successful relationships. It is also the defining force of your Christian walk.
For only those who give and receive mercy will ever truly know the heart of God.
