Mercy!!
Of the many pictures and images that are tearing my heart this week, this one stands out. Men, please! - as we drive around this week in our nice cars, and go to sleep in our nice houses, let us never forget that we are but dust, completely dependent on the mercy of God every moment of every day. Let us cry out for his mercy every day for ourselves, our families, and our world.
Psalm 103:14-16 "For He Himself knows our frame; He is mindful that we are but dust. As for man, his days are like grass; as a flower of the field, so he flourishes. When the wind has passed over it, it is no more, and its place acknowledges it no longer."
Let us never allow ourselves to fall under the delusion of self-sufficiency, thinking we can provide for ourselves in our own strength. The cities we've built could all be rubble tomorrow. Let's live deliberately dependent before circumstances rudely remind us of our utter dependance!
