FATHER OF MERCIES

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,” 

2 Corinthians 1:3

What was or is your father like? Strong? Caring? Harsh? Absent? In today’s verse, God reveals Himself as the Father of mercies. As Father, He is the the “originator and transmitter”* of mercy. So when we think about our Heavenly Father, we can be assured that He not only thought about mercy, He actually transmitted it to us. Does that cause you to sing His praises? 

FATHER of MERCIES, I praise You! Thank You for not just thinking about being merciful, but for extending it to me. I love You.
