Kindness is the quality of heart that determines the dimensions of a person. Mercy is the greatest expression and highest order of kindness. Mercy is pure kindness. Mercy in kindness responds to evil circumstances that demand justice. It feels compassion for a person who deserves nothing.
Mercy shows consideration for a person who is completely undeserving.
A person's worth is not found in his status or achievements. It does not come from his or her past or present. Worth comes from origin. Evil cannot destroy origin. Because humanity needed mercy, God sent us a Savior.
