Dear Jesus,
You are the merciful God. You are abounding in compassion. There is no source of mercy outside of You. You have shown me the most incredible display of Your unending mercy in Your sacrifice on the cross and forgiveness of sin. I know that I am a sinner and am so undeserving of Your merciful love, yet You lavish it on me anyway. What a gift.
Show me in my life how I can show Your mercy to those around me. Guide me, and direct me in the ways of Your mercy so that I can reflect Your heart. Jesus, I know that I fail daily in showing mercy to others, so I ask that You reveal to me opportunities to show mercy to someone today.
Thank You for Your loving-kindness and mercy, which is new every morning and remains steadfast and sure throughout the day. Thank You, Jesus, that although I am totally unworthy to approach Your glorious throne, You have stooped low to me and taken me out of the bondage of darkness and into Your marvellous light by means of Your overflowing mercy. Thank You for seating me together with You in heavenly places and showering me with Your grace and undeserved favour.
Thank You for making me one of Your own.
In Your name, amen.
