Why are God's mercies important for our lives?

In Lamentations 3:22-23, we learn that 'it is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed; because His compassions fail not.' This highlights the importance of God's mercy in sustaining us through our struggles. Recognizing that we do not deserve mercy, but receive it freely, instills in us a profound gratitude. It also reassures us that despite our weaknesses and failures, God's unfailing love and compassion work to preserve us. Such understanding encourages believers to turn back to God in times of doubt and despair, trusting in His ongoing grace.
