Dear Faithful Reader,

I just wanted to say “good morning” to you today and thank you for stopping by. With all the zillions of blogs, books, bytes, and bits available to you today, I am honored that you took a detour to Mercy Street. My goal on this page is simple. I want to encourage you (and me) that He who began a good work in us will complete it.

And, that He will grant us grace and mercy while He is working!

When we visited Disney World decades ago, I admired a three-story ribbon of billowing, white fabric on the back of our hotel. I couldn’t figure out what it was supposed to represent, but it looked so lovely swaying in the breeze. My husband pointed to one corner where the fabric had blown a little wide and revealed the truth. Hidden beneath the gauzy tent were a dozen construction workers in hard hats putting an addition on the hotel.

I think God works that way sometimes. Discreetly, gently, covering us with mercy while He chisels away the things that don’t belong in our lives.

Other times, He comes with a jackhammer, of course. But that is a post for another day!

Thanks again for stopping by. May God grant you mercy today and cover you with loveliness while He works on your life.

Blessings,

Kathy
