I am thankful for God’s mercy. God’s mercy, as it’s biblically defined, is his pity for those who are suffering or needy or helpless in their situation. It’s out of his mercy that he rescues us when we are in trouble and heals us when we are sick. But the crowning act of God’s mercy is saving sinners who are helpless to save themselves. I am thankful that God is merciful to me, providing for me when I cannot provide for myself and healing me when I am sick. But most of all I’m thankful that he is saving me, because I have no hope of saving myself.

I’m also thankful for

What are you thankful for?
