261025 Lean On His Mercy

Some things about God can be understood theoretically, like his justice or the promise that he rewards faithfulness. But his mercy is difficult to understand unless we experience it directly. Without knowing his mercy, we tend to approach God like a boss when we’ve done well and hide from him like Adam when we haven’t. But the tax collector, the Canaanite woman, and a long list of people crying out for mercy show us that God’s mercy is especially there for us on our worst days. And so, we can lean on the mercy of the God, and let it grow in us the reflex to be moved with compassion towards the lost, the hungry, and the hurting. Matthew 15; Luke 18; Hebrews 13; Psalm 121; Isaiah 49 NYC Sunday Sermon | October 25, 2026
