Day 5: Leading with Mercy

Devotional: James reminds us that "mercy triumphs over judgment." As people who have received abundant mercy from God, we should be the most merciful people on earth. Yet often Christians are known more for judgment than grace. Real faith isn't compartmentalized into Sunday mornings—it permeates every aspect of our lives. Your Monday morning commute, your Friday night activities, your family dinner conversations—all are offerings before God. This week, you've learned that your words reveal your heart, and transformation requires God's work within you. Now commit to living out this faith authentically. Hold God's standards high while leading with mercy. Address heart issues through prayer and community. Let your whole life—including your speech—become a living sacrifice. Surrender everything to Him, and watch Him transform not just your words, but your entire life.

Reflection Question: What area of your life needs to become part of your offering to God?
