I was thinking...

I read this this morning as I'm spending time the Lord. I thought I would share it.

"One of the greatest things we have to be greatful for is God's mercy. A mother once approached Napoleon, seeking a pardon for her son. The emporer replied that justice demanded death. 'But I don't ask for justice,' the mother replied, 'I plead for mercy.' 'But your son doesn't deserve mercy,' Napoleon replied. The woman cried, 'It would not be mercy if he deserved it.' And he spared her son."

Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Oh, give thanks to the God of gods! For His mercy endures forever. Oh, give thanks to the Lord of lords! For His mercy endures forever. Psalm 136:1-3
