Meet Mercy

For it is by grace you have been saved, 
through faith—and this is not from yourselves, 
it is the gift of God—  
not by works, so that no one can boast.  
Meet Mercy.
Today was not his best day.
He met challenges in the woods:
fur with sharp teeth.
But it was a day for living, and rising above.

  Jack searched, but upon loosing his victim, gave up the chase.
If we hold out and hold on, Hope always arrives. 
 Unexpected hope.
 A mouse named Mercy.
Rest.
God has got our back. 
He covers it over and over again.
  Mercy rests.
Seven doves arch across a twilight sky, calming jangled nerves.
Heading north, the pole star calls.
Because a true bearing will always bear truth.
