“Merciful” is showing extreme mercy. “Mercy” is “compassion or forgiveness shown toward someone whom it is within one’s power to punish or harm.” Jesus showed the ultimate form of mercy when He gave His life for ours on the cross, forming the path to forgiveness for our sins when we didn’t even deserve it. If He can offer that kind of mercy, how much more can we offer our fellow mankind? 💛 ~ Chelle, #f8ithgal
“Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.” ~ Matthew 5:7
