The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. Ps. 145.9
It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. Lamentations 3.22-23
Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? Rom. 2.4
For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it? 1 Cor. 4.7
"The very breath with which we complain is a blessing." -- Richard Allestree, The Art of Contentment
"Everything on this side of hell is mercy, and the mercies I receive are greater than my burdens." -- Matthew Mead (quoted by Edmund Calamy)
"We can never love God as He deserves. As God's punishing us is less than we deserve (Ezra 9:13), so our loving Him is less than He deserves." --Thomas Watson, All Things for Good
"There but for the grace of God go I." -- John Bradford
