Mercy

Matthew 9:10-13 - And as he was sitting at table in the house, he saw many tax collectors and sinners coming to sit down with Jesus and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw it they asked his disciples about it. "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?" When Jesus heard this he said, "Those who are well have no need of healing but rather those who are sick. Go and learn what this means, I desire mercy and not sacrifice. For I came not to call the righteous but sinners.

God desires mercy and Jesus comes down and shows mercy to the sinners. We all need mercy. We all need grace. We all need hope. Jesus offers that to us. Jesus comes to tell us how much his father, his daddy loves us. And we need to not be stingy with that love but to show others as well. Following Christ means offering God's love and mercy to others. Being a conduit or a channel of God's love and mercy.
