Luke 6:31 And as you wish that men would do to you, do so to them.
I don’t often think about how I would have others treat me, but maybe I should. It isn’t because I don’t care, but it may be because I will realize how selfish my own feelings towards others are. Reflection is a good thing to do because it help to give perspective. As long as we all keep focusing on our “goals” we never see where we are ourselves. I believe this verse is a call to reflection. Then when we see the truth about ourselves we will more likely be willing to show mercy to others.
Father, help me by your Holy Spirit to know how needy I am of mercy and grace and then to be willing and able to be merciful to others.
Amen
