God Extends Mercy

"Those who regard worthless idols forsake their own mercy" Jonah 2:8

Hey what are you trusting in?  It's an honest question.  Every moment of every day we put our trust in something..  ie...our car to start, the alarm to awaken us, our coffee (or coke) to give us a boost.  We also trust in big things...our finances to meet our physical needs, our job to bring self worth, etc. But let me ask you a question, Do these things have mercy to be extended?  Does your car show mercy to you each morning?  Does your coffee care you are dragging and need a boost?  No, only the Creator of Heaven-the God who spoke the world into existence.  The God who spoke your name and called you to Himself.  He and He alone holds the key to mercy. 

Check your heart.  See what is exalting itself in your minds eye over our God-that my friend is an IDOL.  Lay it aside and worship the ONE who holds mercy in His hands.

So true! We so often replace the mercy and blessings we could have with a poor substitute (idol) that can't begin to fulfill or satisfy!
