Have mercy!

My Prayer this morning: Lord, please forgive me for being so harsh and judgmental of other people when they make mistakes or behave in ways that shock me. I know I become judgemental when I forget the grace that has been extended to me through the years of my trials and errors. Therefore, I ask You to help me walk in a constant awareness of all the times I’ve been loved, forgiven, and accepted in spite of my behavior and flaws and shortcomings. Holy Spirit, help me now to be an extension of this same mercy and grace to others who need it from me.
I pray this in Jesus’ name!!

Don’t rush to judgment.

I confess that I walk in mercy and grace! I don’t rush to judgment when others do things that are less than what I expected of them. I realize that everyone makes mistakes and that no one who truly loves Jesus would intentionally do the offensive and hurtful things I’ve seen some people do. These people don’t realize how they are being perceived. I know they’re making these mistakes because they need to grow and mature. So rather than judge others for what they have said, done, or failed to do, I will walk in mercy, grace, forgiveness towards them just as I would want others to do for me!
I declare this in Jesus’ name!
