remember mercy

two little bunnies I crocheted from a pattern I found on ravelry


oh how we are quick to cry out for righteous justice against others, when we ourselves want mercy......
 
And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.  luke 18:13-14

Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name. psalm 119:32

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. matthew 5:44-45
