Charles Frazier
“… she claimed it’s a sign of God’s mercy that He won’t let us remember the reddest details of pain. He knows the parts we can’t bear and won’t let our minds render them again. In time, from disuse, they pale away. At least such was her thinking. God lays the unbearable on you and then takes some back.”
Charles Frazier, Cold Mountain

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“If night never came, people would waste themselves pursuing all that they desire. They would give their own bodies to be consumed for the sake of their desires and greed, but night appears, a treasure of Mercy...”
Jalaluddin Rumi, The Rumi Collection

“They may call you "Stupid" because of what you've done in the past. Hey, you are going to be "Prominent" because of what the Lord has done. The stupid "S" in Saul was exchange to become the Prominent "P" in Paul... and you ask why? It's because of what the Lord has done, Give thanks!”
Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

Simone Weil
“God is rich in mercy. I know this wealth of His with the certainty of experience. I have touched it.”

“No matter what kind of sin you have committed, there is always forgiveness. You must repent and seek forgiveness. You can walk in the new life and light.”
Lailah Gifty Akita, Think Great: Be Great!

Thomas C. Oden
“The moment of confession is not merely when one hears another pronounce the words: God forgives you, or 'in God's name I absolve you.' Rather it is that point at which the sinner unfeignedly experiences himself as truly judged and pardoned by God.”
Thomas C. Oden, Corrective Love: The Power of Communion Discipline

Thomas C. Oden
“Sins that have been completely absolved on one occasion sometimes on other occasions cannot be completely forgotten or set aside. They may continue to have a ripple effect. But it is comforting to realize that they are no longer remembered by God, even if traces remain in human memory.”
Thomas C. Oden, Corrective Love: The Power of Communion Discipline

Ron Brackin
“Not much has changed in the past 6,000 years. We still hide from God because we know we're naked.”
Ron Brackin

Nabeel Qureshi
“If I had known just how boundless is the love of God, just how transformative His grace and mercy, just how liberating His exemplary life and death, I would have run to Him years sooner with all my might.”
Nabeel Qureshi, Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus: A Devout Muslim Encounters Christianity

Anthony Doerr
“His grace is sufficient in our distress. His covenant of vibrant love is displayed in our hearts continually, even if we are unable to see the rainbowed promise with our natural eyes. God's Word is the same. Its promises hold true regardless of the circumstantial evidence to the contrary. God's promised words which are best exhibited through our daily life are bright and beautiful. Calm lives or chaotic ones; His Word remains steadfast. During times of still waters or when we are in a tempest grip, it doesn't change the life-giving promise that His mercies are new every morning. His compassion never wears out. He renews us just as He is with us. He sustains us just as He is for us. No matter what we face, He will see us through it all. Just as the sun rises in the east to meet our new day, His mercy is new each day.”
Anthony Does

“Remembering is an active, muscular endeavor for us. Remembering God's past acts of love and mercy fuels our lagging faith in the present moment, and it reverses despair.”
Marcia Lebhar

Thomas C. Oden
“While the memory of guilt is far from pleasant (like 'wormwood and gall'), it has the curative intent of restoring us into an awareness of the constancy of God's love, new every morning. God's mercy is not spent even with our worst misdeeds.”
Thomas C. Oden, Guilt free

Thomas C. Oden
“Before whom am I guilty? Myself and my gods. But before God? I would be guilty before God IF God had not disclosed himself as forgiving, taking my place, rendering a verdict of pardon upon me. But upon that IF hinges the force of justification by grace through faith alone. For precisely amid our failure to actualize values we mistakenly imagine as ultimate, God himself continues to perceive us AS IF we were clothed in Christ's own righteousness. The Reformation formula, simul peccator et justus, meant: I am a sinner, deserving condemnation for my idolatry; but from God's point of view I am AT THE SAME TIME pardoned, regarded as if the charge against me were canceled out! the final verdict is thus not the one I give myself or the one that may be given in the courts of law or gossip or peer pressure. Rather, it is what God himself has decided about my situation, how he has regarded and perceived me. Through God's own incomparable initiative, our sin is not remembered against us, even though we may oddly persist in remembering it against ourselves.”
Thomas C. Oden, Guilt free

“Just as you are, come to Christ Jesus, He will change you, to what you ought to be.”
Lailah Gifty Akita

“Salvation does not depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy of grace.”
Lailah Gifty Akita

Naomi Rawlings
“After all, maybe that was the most beautiful part of God's mercy. Not that it made people perfect, but that it could take broken people, make them whole again, and give them a happy, bright tomorrow.”
Naomi Rawlings, Love's Bright Tomorrow

Gary Rohrmayer
“In God's mercy, we experience the goodness of God that withholds what we really deserve - judgment and death. In God's grace, we experience the goodness of God that gives us what we really don't deserve - forgiveness and life.”
Gary Rohrmayer

Gift Gugu Mona
“Even when you hate God that much, He will still be merciful to you because God’s mercy is not regulated by the emotions of men.”

“One brilliant manifestation of God’s mercy is found in the elimination of the holes that are continually being dug by the men who are attempting to fill them.”
