I wonder if the word you are looking for is "grace" or "providence," or "compassion" or even "transforming love." If we share in Divinity, then we are children of God, who is "Abba," who 'knows what we need before we ask.' I would prefer a God with those qualities, not "mercy." Dennis, why do you say you don't deserve? I am so sorry to hear that. I would propose rather you are God's beloved, and God knows the perfection deep within you, and is leading you to your highest and best outcome. You might like to read DailyWord.com. It is uplifting. Quite refreshing too I suspect after having 'His Holiness' preach at you that you are supposedly unworthy and supposedly in need of 'mercy'
