House of Mercy / House of Shame

House of Mercy / House of Shame

JESUS' mercy extends to wherever you are. You cannot plummet so deeply into sin and shame that HIS mercy cannot reach you. You cannot be so offensive to GOD that HE cannot touch you where you are by the power of HIS HOLY SPIRIT that will melt the hardness of your heart by the flame of HIS truth and bring you to the place of redemption.

If you are lost in despair and if you are broken beyond repair, allow yourself to try one more time to be lifted from the pit of hopelessness... but this time, let JESUS do the lifting.

You know you can't do it.
You know no one who loves you can do it.
You know you are beyond human help.
And that's the beauty of who JESUS is...
HE IS BEYOND HUMAN LIMITATIONS.


Bethesda means both "House of Mercy" and "House of Shame." When Jesus heals the man who's waited 38 years in Bethesda to be well, he reminds us that our place of deepest shame is the place of Love's greatest mercy.
