“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.”
— Matthew 5:7 NASB1995
👐 Mercy Means Showing Kindness
Mercy is when we are kind—even when someone doesn’t deserve it. It means forgiving someone who hurt us, helping a friend who’s struggling, or not getting even when someone’s mean.
Jesus loves it when we show mercy—because that’s what He does! And when we give mercy, He promises we’ll receive it too.
🏛 A Long Time Ago…
Children in the early church were taught to be merciful, even when others were cruel or unfair. They learned to forgive quickly and love deeply, just like Jesus.
💡 Think About It:
- Who do you need to forgive right now?
- How can you show kindness to someone today?
🙏 Let’s Pray:
Jesus, thank You for being so kind to me. Help me to be merciful, even when it’s hard. I want to love like You do. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
