I am patient with you and
continually show you great mercy. I desire you would show great patience and
mercy to those around you in return. Why do you treat others so roughly and yet
treat yourself so delicate?
(In the spirit,
I saw He was also talking about how we judge others – that we judge others far
more harshly than we judge ourselves).
Should this not be
reversed?
If you persist on this path, I will subject you
to very rough refining. Be gentle with others as you desire others would be with
you.
If you desire mercy, show
My Mercy to others.
Matthew 5:7
Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Colossians 1:10-11
10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all
pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of
God;
11 Strengthened with all might, according to his
glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
Proverbs 21:21
He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life,
righteousness, and honour.
Matthew 7:12
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do
ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
