Miracle Mercy

I read this awesome passage of scripture about a week and half ago in my quiet time, and it has really been sticking with me and impacting me. Just read this, and dwell on God's marvelous love and miracle mercy for the children He loves!!!

Psalms 107:10-16 (From the Message)

Some of you were locked in a dark cell, cruelly confined behind bars,
Punished for defying God's word, for turning your back on the High God's
counsel--
A hard sentence, and your hearts so heavy, and not a soul in sight
to help.
Then you called out to God in your desperate condition; he got you
out in the nick of time.
He led you out of your dark, dark cell, broke open
the jail and led you out.
So thank God for his marvelous love, for his
miracle mercy to the children he loves;
He shatterd the heavy jailhouse
doors, he snapped the prison bars like matchsticks!

We need to live EVERY DAY like we are the children HE loves, the objects of His miracle mercy! That should change the way we look at every day, no matter how bad work sucks, no matter how poor we are, no matter how hard life is... we are the children he loves!

Live today like you are that child.
