✞ Bible Basics ✞
Mercy.. We experience mercy when we make a mistake but others give us a break. Parents, teachers, and friends may show us mercy by not forcing us to face painful consequences. God shows great mercy throughout the Bible, preferring to love and forgive. And even when he delivers consequences for bad choices, he corrects us out of his great mercy, love, and knowledge of what's best for us. A good way to experience God's mercy is to recognize our faults and ask him to help us change. When we truly appreciate God's mercy toward us, we will regularly offer it to others who are also undeserving.
