LeaderTip of the Day #14: Run your race with mercy and grace. Give mercy even when people don't know they need it and live with grace (God's power)!
The thought behind the quote
God’s grace doesn’t just offer us forgiveness. It gives us the power to live in victory. We have been given a gift—the ability to live in triumph over sin and death through Jesus Christ. This triumph isn’t just for us; it’s also something we should share with others through mercy.
Mercy and grace go hand in hand. Mercy is choosing to forgive and show compassion, even when someone doesn’t realize they need it. It’s the way we reflect God’s heart to others. Grace, on the other hand, is the power that God gives us to live a life His way. When we run our race with mercy and grace, we not only experience God’s love for ourselves, but we also become vessels of His love to those around us.
