Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful. (Luke 6:36 NKJV)
There are many who believe in God, but most do not really know who God truly is. Knowing God is to understand His Godly character. You will not know Him unless He reveals Himself to you, experience Him first-hand. God is love. God is Holy. God is merciful and so forth and so on. God is perfect. We have all been partakers of His kindness, love, and mercy. As the elect Sons and Daughters of God, we are to reveal Him to the world. This is a great task delegated to us. It may seem impossible. However, we have to abide and live by it for His honor and glory. We can do it for God is with us. We can do all things because He strengthens us. We were anointed by His Spirit that directs and teaches us how. The greatest of His commands is to love Him and our fellowmen. The greatest test of this Godly character is to love our enemies. Our enemies are those who hurt and abuse us, doing evil to our body and soul. We bleed and hurt inside out. The description of an enemy fits you and me when we were sinners, but then God loved us. He gave His whole self, not only His other cheek. He not only walked a mile but walked with the cross. He gave Himself for our salvation. If He did this to us, we should do it to others. Let us give ourselves for the good of others, even of our enemies. Let us be the perfect image of God in the world. God wants us to be 100% Christians, to present Him to the world. We cannot be acceptable if we are half Christians and half Sinners. Our witnessing is worth nothing if we are not transformed in living by His Words. Live in the light and be the light. Raise your torch up high and lighten up this darkened world.
