Gift of Mercy
The gift of mercy is defined as the ability to empathize with the pain, struggles and suffering of others while comforting them with kindness, patience and love of God (Romans 12:8).
People who have this gift are drawn to people’s hurts and desire to walk with them through their pain.
They also need to be aware of the tendency to downplay or ignore what truly needs to change in a person and that consequences are great teachers of life lessons.
