The Mercy Prayer by Robert Gelinas
The author's writing is very easy to
understand. The author discusses the most commonly used prayer
in the Bible, “Lord, have mercy”. The Mercy Prayer provides an insight that must
be studies slowly and deliberately to fully understand everything the author is
writing about. This book is well worth the
time and effort. Do not be fooled in
thinking this book is only taking about the Mercy prayer. The key topic is the most commonly used prayer
but there is a great deal more information provided about and around this
prayer. An example would be how mercy is
the opposite of justice. The author
writes, “Justice is what we deserve in any given
situation. Mercy, on the other hand, is not receiving what we deserve, or
receiving less than what we have coming to us." Strive to be on the
receiving side of Christ's mercy. Do not
demand justice but see what happens when mercy is given to others.
