DAYSTART
FOCUS
MERCY
While God sees and knows everything, His mercy moves Him to intentionally withhold the response our offense deserves. Driven by unimaginable love, His mercy is not passive; it is purposeful—designed to ensure our growth into His likeness. Rather than being punished, we are sustained by an abundant supply of fresh mercies, renewed for us every morning. Mercy will be our focus this week during DayStart.

Micah 7:18-19 Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy. 19 He will again have compassion on us, And will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins Into the depths of the sea.

Titus 3:3-7 For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
