What do you think of when you hear the word "mercy"? In Part One of the podcast, we open the Word of God and talk about this amazing gift. Lamentations 3: 22-23 are verses often quoted when speaking about God's mercy. These powerful verses must have deeply impacted Thomas Obadiah Chisholm when he wrote the lyrics, Morning by morning, new mercies I see, in the timeless hymn, Great Is Thy Faithfulness.
In Part Two of this episode, you'll hear from a real life, death row inmate about God's incredible mercy and grace. Jimmy MacPhee had no idea how the words, "May God have mercy on your soul," (spoken by the judge after being sentenced to death row at age 20) would come full circle almost 45 years later.
Hold on tight for this one. Though most of his James MacPhee's life was spent in the SC prison system, not a single moment of Jimmy's life has been wasted. God's ways and thoughts are not ours and are higher than we can ever imagine. Our stories are orchestrated by His sovereignty and with eternity in mind.
Living Real Magazine published Jimmy's story in the Spring/Summer 2021 issue. You can read his article at https://livingrealmag.com/blogs/articles
