Day 206 Bible Reading: 2 Chronicles 14-16, Romans 9:1-29, Psalm 19 and Proverb 20:1
It's great to know that God has total freedom to give mercy and compassion to anyone He wants to. Thus, we are not to judge those who God favours. Likewise, no one can complain when we are at the receiving end of God's goodness.
"For he says to Moses, 'I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.'" – Romans 9:15 (English Standard Version)
"Lord, thank you that Your mercy and compassion are a gift - it cannot be earned or controlled by man. I come to Your throne of grace and receive your gifts with a grateful heart. In Jesus' name, Amen."
