God sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous;
God causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good.
In this God demonstrates mercy.
Little mercy for those who have not shown mercy to others;
But if you have been merciful, God will be merciful to you.
Mercy triumphs over judgment;
so let’s be agents of mercy today, rain or shine.

Prayers for many in need of a merciful, healing touch.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

In honor of those who have shown me great mercy.
