19b And I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy. ~ Exodus 33:19
Honestly, at face value, this statement sounds rather harsh. In fact, it almost sounds sinister, but when you actually look at who God is and how He works, you understand that it isn’t harsh or sinister at all. God sets in place rules for the entire Universe to abide by, and there are consequences to breaking God’s rules.
Now, if we repent, He promises us that He will have mercy on us. This is why He says He will show mercy on whom He will show mercy because not everyone humbles themselves before Him. Why? Because not everyone repents. Today is the day of Salvation; tomorrow is promised to no man, no woman, no teen, no child. Tomorrow is promised to no one. Today is the only day you have to repent. Don’t take it for granted because tomorrow may never come.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Grasp Salvation Today.
