mercy


There was a young man in Napoleon's army who committed a deed so terrible that it was worthy of death.  The day before he was scheduled for the firing squad, the young man's mother went to Napoleon and pleaded for mercy for her son.

Napoleon replied, "Woman, your son does not deserve mercy"

"I know," she answered.  "If he deserved it, then it would not be mercy"


"Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion, blot out my transgressions." Psalm 51:1

"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."  Romans 5:8
