Hi All,<P> I just reworked my paraphrase of speech from the movie “Babbetts Feast”. It’s quite a<BR>thought provoking speech given by a man who has lived his life and reflected on the<BR>concept of mercy. Feel free to print it out and hang it up on your wall :-)<P> God’s Mercy <P>Man, in his weakness and shortsightedness makes choices in this life.<P>He sometimes trembles at the risks he takes, the choices he makes in fear.<P>But... in the end... as we anguish in the fruit of our choices, <P>There comes a time when our eyes are opened,<P>and we come to realize that God’s mercy is infinite.<P>We need only await it with confidence...and receive it with gratitude.<P>Mercy imposes no conditions.<P><BR>And lo!<P><BR>Everything we have chosen has been granted to us.<P>And everything... we rejected... has also been granted.<P>Yes, sometimes... even that which we rejected... <P> we receive back again... unto ourselves.<P><BR>For... Mercy and Truth are met together, <P>and Righteousness and Peace shall kiss one another. (Psalm 85:10)<P> <P>
