Give me Mercy
I have been shown so much mercy by many. God has been so gracious to not squish me. You’d think I’d have a different attitude today than what I have. I am so sick and tired of irresponsibility. If you owe people money, pay your bills so that they can pay theirs. If people donate money to you, use it wisely and if you don’t need it, give it back to God. If you have a job to do, work to the best of your ability and try not to make mistakes. If you tell someone you are going to do something, then do it. People are counting on you. Don’t use people. People aren’t garbage for you to mop up your needs with and then toss out like rubbish. My grandaddy once said about an old boyfriend of mine, “If you could buy him for what he was worth and sell him for what he thought he was worth, why I guess you’d be the richest woman in town.” Turns out he was right. Don’t let your character be such that people can and will say that about you. God, please help me to have mercy and extend grace to these that I think so poorly of.
