GOD’S
MERCY

God’s mercy may be found between bridge and stream.

Augustine of Hippo

The only haven of safety is in the mercy of God, as manifested in Christ, in whom every part of our salvation is complete.

John Calvin

Among the attributes of God, although they are all equal, mercy shines with even more brilliance than justice.

Miguel de Cervantes

There’s a wideness in God’s mercy,

Like the wideness of the sea;

There’s a kindness in his justice,

Which is more than liberty.

F.W. Faber

His father saw him – there were eyes of

 mercy;

he ran to meet him – there were legs of

 mercy;

he put his arms round his neck – there

 were arms of mercy;

he kissed him – there were kisses of mercy;

he said to him – there were words of mercy;

Bring here the best robe – there were deeds

 of mercy;

Wonders of mercy – all mercy!

Oh, what a God of mercy he is!

Matthew Henry

God’s mercy was not increased when Jesus came to earth, it was illustrated! Illustrated in a way we can understand.
