“Nothing stirs God’s heart more than a humble heart and a merciful spirit. God responds to mercy, because it is through compassion that we fully come to know Him. This is the defining quality of a true follower of Christ. We are never closer to the heart of God than when we are forgiving someone. And we are never farther from it than when we are holding a grudge.” KnowsHeartSpiritChristQualityCompassionMercyForgivingHumbleFollowersDefiningMercifulGrudgeHumble Heart Author:Nicky Cruz
“Christ heals with more ease than any other. Christ makes the devil go out with a word (Mark 9:25). Nay, he can cure with a look: Christ's look melted Peter into repentance; it was a healing look. If Christ doth but cast a look upon the soul he can recover it. Therefore David prays to have a look from God, 'Look Thou upon me, and be merciful unto me' (Psalm 119:132).” IfsLooksSoulChristHealingChristianityPrayingDevilMarkCastsHealCuresEaseLook UpRepentancePeterMercifulPsalms Book:Extracts from the Writings of Thomas Watson Source: Extracts from the Writings of Thomas Watson
