Mt Moriah: Mercy

The story is told of a politician who, after receiving the proofs of a portrait, was very angry with the photographer. He stormed back to the photographer and arrived with these angry words: “This picture does not do me justice!” The photographer replied, “Sir, with a face like yours, you don’t need justice, you need mercy!” We all need mercy, don’t we? Not just for our looks, but for our souls. And not just from each other, but from God himself. In Genesis 22, God met Abraham on a mountain. The story plays out in 4 acts that reveal how God has the mercy we all need in Jesus Christ.
