J. Dwight Pentecost used to say, "Mercy is God's ministry to the miserable." It is both intensely personal and immensely practical. For when I am treated unfairly, God's mercy relieves my bitterness. When I grieve over loss, it relieves my pain and anger and denial. When I struggle with disability, it relieves my self-pity. When I endure physical pain, it relieves my hopelessness. When I deal with being sinful, it relieves my guilt. Quote this article on your site | Views: 417 | Print | E-mail
