“We are the people and the sheep of Thy pasture, who in time past were not a people”—we didn’t belong to God; we were far from Him—“but are now the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.” And, friends, there’s one gift that you don’t want to miss. And the title of that gift, the name written on the box, is “mercy.” And it’s a big box. God, He’s rich in mercy; an abundant mercy. And if you need any today, you can go to Him and He’s merciful. He wants to save you. He wants to help you. He wants to lift you up. How wonderful it is.

Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
