God—so rich is He in His mercy! Because of and in order to satisfy

mercy. Yes, we must enter His presence with bold confidence
in the blood of Jesus, but as we enter into His holy dwelling,
we are humbled before a ‘mercy seat’ that has been sprinkled

God is because that blood still allows mercy to be released
to us.

and over). He’s all I’ve got left.” Lamentations 3:21-24, MSG
May God’s grace, peace and mercy be multiplied unto you.
