like the term, severe mercy is a deep place in our relationship with God.
It amazes me that I was able to enjoy a beautiful performance of Handel's Messiah last night and God led Handel to put the words of Job front and center in the lyrics of the Messiah.
"I know my Redeemer lives!"
All we have, as the God of Israel is bringing us to the end of our strength, is the reassurance of His "now" presence with us and the Hope of His future kingdom.
We literally have nothing else, and that is mercy.
2024 ends with me, same place I have been all my life, a "victim of relentless affection."
