God's Mercy Is Different:



Exodus 33:19
"And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the
name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious,
and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy."
 
 God’s mercy is not like our mercy. To us, mercy is merely the removal of the cause of pain or suffering, even if it means destroying the good together with what’s bad. To many people, it is better to end life than to allow suffering. To many people, it is better not even to allow life to begin than to allow suffering to happen.
     To God however, it isn’t merciful to destroy what is good or beautiful even if it means putting an end to something that is bad. God will keep what is good even if it means suffering for it. He came down from heaven to suffer and to die for us so that when He rises again, He could also draw us all into His saving love!
     We have all suffered from sin. But God, instead of destroying us all, saved us. Even if all that remains within our souls is a little spark of love, He will not let it be extinguished! He will purify us until He could save all that could still be saved. Thank You God For Your Mercy!! 

Amen!
