Our relationship with our Lord is a merciful one, in fact it is based upon mercy.  Jesus Himself saw to that by going to the cross so that our sins might be forgiven.  He is the one who made it possible for us to draw near to God; to approach His throne.

Remember, O Lord, your great mercy and love, 
    for they are from of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth 
    and my rebellious ways; 
according to your love remember me,
    for you are good, O Lord.

Psalm 25:6-7

In many relationships, we have difficulty approaching others because we have hurt or offended them… how will they react?  In relationship with Jesus, He has already forgiven us; we can approach in praise and thanksgiving.

We may approach Him for His guidance, His mercy, and His love… we will truly be missing out if we neglect such a great relationship.

As we travel through our day , let’s be sure not to neglect our relationship with Him, that relationship which is so very wonderful and merciful.
