Psalms 40:11. Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
If you have dealt honestly with God’s word you may expect that God will deal graciously with you. Surely he would not send us to proclaim a message of mercy and then deny mercy to us. That cannot be. But brethren when we have done our best for God and before God, yet we cannot boast, we still want mercy and we fall back upon the lovingkindness of God just as the sinner must do when he first of all comes to God. May we ever be in that true and humble frame of mind which looks for nothing but mercy.
