We Grow: A Journey of Drawing Closer to GodSample
Day 46 of 365
In Exodus 21-22, God gives His people laws that reveal His heart for justice and mercy. True justice isn’t just about righting wrongs; it’s about showing compassion to the vulnerable, protecting the oppressed, and caring for the broken. The Holy Spirit teaches us this balance, guiding us to live with both conviction and compassion, reflecting God’s character.
As Jesus breathes His last on the cross, the temple curtain tears, ending the separation between God and humanity. This ultimate act of mercy opens the way for us to approach God, not through our righteousness, but through His. The Spirit leads us to live in light of this mercy, extending grace and kindness to others as God has done for us.
Today, invite the Spirit to align your heart with God’s justice and mercy. Let Him shape you into someone who embodies both, seeking God’s will while loving others deeply.
