How Does Corruption Affect the Image and Likeness of God?

DAY 2 OF 4

Devotional:
The second way corruption affects the image and likeness of God is through the experience of cruelty. It feels as if one lacks a soul: “What will you do for me before I serve you?” Compassion demonstrates the opposite of cruelty. We all cry out to be loved, but love is not a thing—love is the person of Jesus.

Prayer:
Abba, in the name of Jesus, I ask that Your compassion fill my heart so I may serve and not take advantage of anyone. You are mercy—help me extend mercy to those around me, and especially to forgive those who have offended me. I desire my life to be a tree that bears abundant fruit. Amen.
