How do we find satisfaction in God's mercy?

Answered in 1 source

Satisfaction in God's mercy comes from recognizing salvation as a gift rather than a task.

In Psalm 90, Moses expresses the need to be satisfied early with God's mercy. This reflects the Reformed understanding that true satisfaction arises from recognizing that salvation is by sheer mercy through Christ. Unlike a performance-driven approach that posits salvation depends on our works, the biblical narrative underscores that God's mercy alone satisfies the soul's deepest longings. Acknowledging that we are justified freely by His grace not only liberates us from the burden of striving for acceptance but also fills our hearts with joy and gratitude for the salvation we have received.
