“Nothing stirs God’s heart more than a humble heart and a merciful spirit. God responds to mercy, because it is through compassion that we fully come to know Him.

And we are never farther from it than when we are holding a grudge.” KnowsHeartSpiritChristQualityCompassionMercyForgivingHumbleFollowersDefiningMercifulGrudgeHumble Heart Author:Nicky Cruz
