Mercy is a fascinating thing. Let's try to understand it better.

I want you to remember a time when a friend or someone close to you avoided you, shrugged you off for some reason. Now imagine that person being in all kinds of trouble or having a lot of problems because of a bad choice that included walking away from you. Then they come to you for help and you help them as if they had never shrugged you off and hurt you. That’s mercy. Mercy – to show compassion to someone who offended you.
