BEING FOLLOWED

The Goodness and Mercy of God requires no preconditions. By the time we need mercy, nothing more can be done to deserve it, but that is why only mercy will do. We who know little of unconditional love struggle with the very idea that God offers such goodness without stipulations. Goodness and mercy follow after me and every last strand of resistance to God’s ways will succumb to their advance. The goodness of God is continually defeating my unruliness. Most Merciful and Gracious God, You bear no grudges and offer the way of life to the undeserving, do Your holy work in me today.
