The Color of Mercy

The Color Of Mercy

Which is The color of Mercy? If you look
very close - It is very red. It is the blood
that Jesus bled for us.

which is the color of Mercy? It is brown - 
they are the throns of the crown that Jesus 
wore on his head.

Which is the color of Mercy? It is the road
where Jesus walked to the calvary carrying
the cross.

Which is the color of mercy? It is the stain of 
our sins, being removed.

Which is the color of Mercy? It is the whitest
white that you have seen, when we have sins and 
Jesus has washed them away. These are the colors
of Mercy....
