August 17

Take a moment to reflect on God's tender mercy. He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds with gentle love. God's mercy is great and boundless, just like Him. It's so immense that it forgives the worst sins of the greatest sinners and pours out blessings, privileges, and joy in His heavenly presence.

His mercy is undeserved, because true mercy can't be earned. If the sinner was punished instantly, it would be just. But deliverance from wrath comes only from God's sovereign love, not from anything in us.

God's mercy is rich. It revives your weary spirit, heals your wounds, strengthens your brokenness, and comforts your heart. It's abundant mercy. Every flower in God's garden blooms with double beauty. You may think you have just one mercy, but it's truly a cluster.

It's overflowing mercy. Millions have received it, yet it remains fresh, full, and free. Mercy endures. It stands by you in temptation, supports you in trouble, enlightens your life, and becomes your soul's joy when earthly comforts fade away.

Closing Prayer

God, as we start this day, fill us with Your love so we can share it freely. Amen.
