Pride and it's impact on mercy


In preparing for last Sunday’s message I stumbled onto a reality that I don’t think I ever had considered before.  I got to thinking about pride and repentance in connection with mercy. Here’s the reality … “God’s mercy has absolutely no significance in the presence of pride.”
I really don’t see any need for mercy if I consider myself pretty well put together. The humble person is the one who really really really appreciates God’s infinite mercy.

He shows mercy from generation to generation to all who fear him.
Luke 1:50 (NLT)
