Mercy and Grace
Mercy and Grace
By Danny C. Wash
“Let us therefore draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace to help in time of need,” Hebrews 4:16
Are you carrying a load of worry and fears
unable to be free from your crying & tears.
Jesus on Earth said “Come to me, all who labor
and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
Jesus entered into Heaven without reproach
after the cross & and thereby being blessed,
He sat on His throne of grace for us to approach,
telling us to come with confidence to this place
in time of need to receive His mercy & grace.
And, Mercy & Grace issue from the heart of Jesus
like two sisters whose roles have been decreed
to use their power to meet our desperate need.
Mercy represents the compassion of God for us
and Grace is His undeserved favor for the unjust,
who in Christ receive His justness by faith & trust.
Will you be justified through Jesus Christ today
by the cross which paid what you cannot repay.
It is a gift to be received by faith & in no other way.
