What Should Man Do? Love Mercy!

“He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?”

There is no doubt that Justice will come. But Justice belongs to God.

What belongs to us? Mercy. How many times do we walk past someone in pain. The homeless and suffering. A mother who struggles to work and care for her children, but finds herself just stretched too thin. There is the father who works so very hard to provide for his family, but, through no fault of his own, is failing. The brokenhearted…

There is the immigrant who came here to provide their children with a better life. A chance. And if we are honest, if our children were in trouble, we would do the same thing. They speak very little English and yet they found the courage to come here for their children’s sake. How often do we walk by them without even a smile of encouragement?

So often, we don’t even see the hurting and broken hearted. But we can ask Jesus to show them to us and then pray for the courage and strength to be there for them. To give them the hug, encouragement and compassion they so desperately need.

“He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?”
