And his mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation. He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts; he has brought down the mighty from their thrones and exalted those of humble estate; he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy, as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his offspring forever."
The LORD, God the Almighty's mercy, like all other of His characteristics, is constant, consistent, coherent and continuous to those who fear Him. The God who fills the heavens with thunderbolts is the God who lavishes His love upon His children. Perfectly just yet perfectly merciful!
