To experience\u00a0 the mercy of God, one must be merciful to others and not judgmental. Paul goes into great detail\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 how a believer must act towards others, and we are left in no doubt as to what the Lord expects. We might think this is hard to do, but Solomon gives us the key\u2026..\u201dtrust in the Lord,\u201d he says, \u201cDon\u2019t follow your first reaction to circumstances, ask what God would have you to do! If you do this, you will KNOW the right thing to do\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Paul goes on to say that we will then have God\u2019s peace ruling in our heart with our minds and consciences at rest. We will be thankful for what we HAVE got, and be able to count our blessings.
