Matthew 6:14
For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
They say, ‘To err is human, to forgive, divine.’ And yet, God calls us to follow in His footsteps. Because the truth is simple: if we’re all guilty at some point, then we all need to give each other grace at some point too.

Isaiah 30:18
Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; therefore He will rise up to show you compassion. For the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for Him!
We spend so much of our lives waiting. We wait in line at the grocery store. We wait for our online orders to arrive. We wait for our turn at an amusement park. Waiting is just part of life. So it shouldn’t surprise us that the Lord sometimes asks us to wait too—not as a punishment, but as a way of preparing us to receive His help.

Psalm 86:15
But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
When you’re younger, sometimes your view of God gets shaped by fear or misunderstanding. You start to see Him as distant… angry… always disappointed. And those ideas can stick with you for a long time. But the more time you spend with Him, the more you realize He isn’t like that at all. In fact, He’s the complete opposite. He is patient, kind, full of mercy and love.

Psalm 103:13
As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him.
When you have children, you quickly realize they’re experts at making mistakes. They spill their drinks. They track mud through the house. They forget to make their beds. But that’s okay—because parents are supposed to be just as good at showing them mercy and grace.

Colossians 3:12
Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
When you get up every day you take time to put on your clothes, but sometimes we forget that there’s other things that we are called to put on as well. Things that don’t have to do with how we look on the outside, but how we look on the inside.

Matthew 9:36
When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
When Jesus walked this earth, He didn’t look at people with judgment brewing in His heart. He looked at them with compassion. He saw what they were facing. He understood what they were feeling. And He knew He was the only One who could truly help.
