Mercy and Truth Written on Our Hearts


Proverbs 3:1-4   
1 My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands; 2 For length of days and long life And peace they will add to you.   3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart,  4 And so find favor and high esteem In the sight of God and man.

We must not forget what God lays out for us to do, but value it so much as to fill our heart and so obey willingly and eagerly.  Living then guided by the truth with mercy (speaking the truth in love) in our heart will honor God and show the love for others in His image that He commands us.  He will so keep us in perfect peace with our mind stayed on Him.
