Be Merciful, justas Your Father is Merciful Perhaps no other attribute of God, besides His love, attracts us to Him as does His mercy. This quality distinguishes Him from all That indescribable, overflowing, and undeserved mercy melts away all our pride and arrogance, fills us with gratitude, and gives false gods. From the beginning to the end us a new birth, a new life, a new will, and a ofthe Bible, the endless procession of saints extols His mercy, repeating the refrain: "His mercy endures foreved" new viewpoint. Now we look at our fellow inhabitants ofthe earth with the eyes ofour merciful Father. And so the chain reaction goes on from God to us to others. As His mercy endures forever, so may our mercifulness - as that ofhis children - be likewise enduring. His mercy caused Him to devise a plan of redemption that would reach every human being, moved Him to give His only Son as a ransom for all sinners, established His kingdom and His Church, inspired the Scriptures, provided the sacraments, forgives all our transgressions and heals our diseases, o give thanks unto the Lord, for His mercy endures forever. Amen. and gives us peace, joy, and hope and time for repentance. Great is His mercy!
