Should we be merciful, just as our Father in heaven is merciful?

My brothers and sister in Christ, we must be compassionate, just as our Father is compassionate. We must be kind to and love one another, even those who hurt us, use and abuse us; and we must be as our Father in heaven whose wisdom from above is first of all pure, then peaceable, gentle, accommodating, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial, and sincere. Amen!
