Bible verse of the day...Micah 7:18 (NIV)

Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy. Micah 7:18 (NIV)

My reflection of the verse

Have you experienced being persecuted or being looked down by someone? Well, I have had that experience. Sometimes it's annoying, you'll get upset and get hurt in the process. However, most of the time I see it as a challenge. A challenge for me to become a better person and an opportunity to show God's love on that individual. Arrogance of a man won't do him any good. I think no man is better than the other. We are created equal and we should forgive the person who try to put us down. In fact, a prayer would help that person a lot. We should be merciful because sometimes man doesn't know what he is doing. Oftentimes, these people are blinded with hate and insecurities in their hearts. As God has said in this verse, let us not be angry but rather show mercy and learn how to forgive.
