Mercy and Grace

I've heard it said before that mercy is not getting what we deserve; grace is getting what we don't deserve.

 

God has blessed me with so much of both mercy and grace that I can't even comprehend it.  I bow in awe of the God who loves so deeply.

 

Lord, thank You for the hope I have in You.

 

Lamentations 3:22-23 (ESV) The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

 

2 Corinthians 12:9 (ESV) But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
