A Puritan at Heart

Daily quote from the puritans

everlasting mercy and goodness

My brethren, God’s mercies are from everlasting; and it is a treasure that can never be spent, never exhausted, unto eternity. In Isaiah 64:5 we read, "In Thy mercy is continuance." If God will but continue to be merciful to me, will a poor soul say, I have enough…Hath God pardoned thee hitherto? but hast thou sinned again? Can He stretch His goodness and mercy a little further? Why, He will stretch them out unto eternity, unto everlasting: and if one everlasting be not enough, there are twenty six everlastings in this one psalm. (Psalm 136). [Thomas Goodwin]
