Wednesday Wisdom No. 2

See original "Wednesday Wisdom" post here

"God's mercies don't come in one color; no, they come in every shade of every color of the rainbow of his grace.  God's mercies are not the sound of one instrument; no, they sound the note of every instrument of his grace.  God's mercy is general; all of his children bask in His mercy.  God's mercy is specific; each child receives the mercy that is designed for his or her particular moment of need.  God's mercy is predictable; it is the fountain that never stops flowing.  God's mercy is unpredictable; it comes to us in surprising forms.  God's mercy is a radical theology, but it is more than a theology; it is life to all who believe.  God's mercy is ultimate comfort, but it is also a call to a brand new way of living.  God's mercy really does change everything forever, for all upon whom this mercy is bestowed." ~ Paul David Tripp, New Morning Mercies

This has been a great devotional thus far - I started it a few weeks ago, and can already predict that you'll see many Wednesday Wisdom posts taken from this book...
