How do we know that God shows mercy to us?

The knowledge of God's mercy can be derived from multiple scriptural references and personal experiences of grace. In Psalm 67, the psalmist acknowledges the need for mercy as the starting point for prayer, illustrating our unworthiness and God's steadfast love. The Apostle Paul, in Romans, emphasizes that God's mercy is foundational to our salvation. Furthermore, David, in his confessions, repeatedly calls upon God's mercy, affirming its abundance. Thus, through Christ's sacrifice and the assurance of forgiveness, we see the richness of God's mercy revealed.
