GOD BE MERCIFUL
Luke 18:13
And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’
Personal Challenge
The parable of the pharisee and the tax collector reminds us that we are all sinners and in need of God;\'s great gift of mercy. This is why those of us who practice the Orthodox way of Christianity so often pray the Jesus Prayer, which is: "Lord, Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!". We need God's mercy at all times in our lives. Glory be to God!
