MONDAY 9 MARCH 2020
Luke 6, 36-38:
“Be merciful… Do not judge… Do not condemn… Forgive… Give… The measure you use, they will use with you.”
What different measures we use to measure ourselves and to measure others.
This Monday in Lent may be a good day for you to review your measurements:
✓ Capacity: How far are you able to forgive? Are you one of those who say “I forgive but I don’t forget”? Keep in mind that God does not forgive in this way.
✓ Length: how far does your measure of love and mercy go? Remember that the measure of God’s love is to love without measure.
✓ Weight: is your weighing scale fair? Do you not weigh more or tip the scale more according to your personal interests?
God always leans towards mercy.
+ Forgive by burning and making ashes.
+ Love without measure.
+ Fill yourself with mercy.
Good day.
