The voice of mercy

Thomas Brooks


God's mercies make a humble soul glad—but not proud. 
A humble soul is lowest when his mercies are highest; 
he is least when he is greatest; he is lowest when he 
is highest; he is most poor when he is most rich. 

Nothing melts like mercy, 
nothing draws like mercy, 
nothing humbles like mercy. 

The voice of mercy is, "Remember what you once 
were, and what now you are—and be humble."

The voice of mercy

By Thomas Brooks


God's mercies make a humble soul glad—but not proud. 
A humble soul is lowest when his mercies are highest; 
he is least when he is greatest; he is lowest when he 
is highest; he is most poor when he is most rich. 

Nothing melts like mercy, 
nothing draws like mercy, 
nothing humbles like mercy. 

The voice of mercy is, "Remember what you once 
were, and what now you are—and be humble."
