When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
Psalm 126 verse 1 (King James Version)

God is Full of Mercy

A boy was sent by his teacher to the principal of the school for doing something wrong. After hearing the facts the principal took out a blank book and wrote down the boy's name, observing he did so:

"You have not been sent to me before. Now, I don't know you: you may be a good boy, for all I know. Good children sometimes make mistakes. Now I'll just make a note in pencil that you were sent to me today, and I will also note why you were sent. But you see I am making this memorandum in pencil, and I am not bearing on very hard. And if you are not sent to me again this year, I shall erase this from my book and no one will ever know anything about it."

It was a lesson in mercy he never forgot.
(F. H. Drinkwater)

Trust the past to the mercy of God, the present to God's love, the future to God's providence.
(Augustine of Hippo)

There's a wideness in God's mercy Like the wideness of the sea, There's a kindness in God's justice Which is more than liberty
(F.W. Faber)
