This blog entry requires some audience participation. I know that there aren't very many participants, but you know how it is.
I have been thinking about the words grace and mercy. If we serve a gracious and merciful God - and we do! And, if we are to be more like God - and we are! Then, as Christians, why aren't we more gracious and merciful to others - espcially to our brothers and sisters in Christ! It seems Christians sometimes, we are more gracious and merciful to those on the street than to those we meet with on a weekly basis!
Another word describing God is servant. He sent His son to be the ultimate servant for us. Should we also be a servant to God? Should we give our all to Him?
I believe that if we were more gracious, merciful, and served God & others, all of our pettiness in the church would desolve!!!
Just some food for thought!!
