Day #1364

September 25, 2017 

The descriptor for Jesus for today - merciful. 

As described by Katie Todd in the daily devotion "d365" from September 24, “[mercy is] a conscious decision to offer compassion, to show care, to provide protection, to keep another from harm.” It seems to me all that describes Jesus perfectly. 

And perhaps Jesus smiles best when we show mercy to one another. As one of the young folks and their mother did in bringing items for Family Promise guests. Everybody should have a toothbrush [and soap, shampoo, bubble bath, etc. according to what they brought] the little one said.  

Thank you, little one, for putting mercy into action and being a great example. And thank you to everyone who is serving so that Family Promise guests experience the love of God through their hands.

Blessings.
