psalms 23:6....surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. ....It is the nature of God to be good, that is why even when we go through the valley of the shadow of death, God promises to be with us because , everything is meant to work out for our good.( Romans 8:28) Goodness and mercy is that which brought Christ to die for us on the cross, while on the cross Jesus said “ forgive them because they don't know what they are doing”. Christ could have called down the fire to consume the men that crucified them but He didn't! now that is goodness and that is mercy!
many times Christ intercedes for us before the father when we continue to live in the sin that He saved usfrom because we often crucify Him again on the cross when we continue to live in the sin that He saved us from. But still when we say sorry, He forgives us. God loves us more than what we do for Him and even more than the sin that we commit. God loves us more than our disability because He is able, God loves us more than our weakness because He is strong , 2nd Corinthians 12:9 His Grace is sufficient because His power is made perfect in our weaknesses. Christ entered the house of zachaeus not to condemn Him but because He loved Him and he was good to him , because of Christ's goodness and mercy , zacheaus also gave back to the people that he had cheated four times more. Therefore humanity has the duty of being good and merciful to people because that is the nature of God.
God wants to make you good and merciful, perhaps you are good and also merciful, Go wants you to overflow abundantly.
prayer for today
