Understanding God’s tender love for his children

By Mauricio Pérez

Mercy isn't a popular word in our culture today.

"People get what they deserve." "Payback is sweet." "I'll never forgive them for what they've done."

An open letter to those in need of God’s loving mercy (that is, all of us)

Dear friend,
For reasons known perhaps only to you, you have decided you are unworthy of God’s mercy. You have been on my mind lately, and in recent days I have felt strongly that God was nudging me to write a few words of hope to you. Do not be afraid! You are the very one Jesus is looking for so that he may tell you, “Your sins are forgiven.”
