Are we more loving than God, who is love? (1 John 4:8). Have we a better idea of mercy than its Giver? (Ps. 55:1). Have we fooled ourselves into thinking we can outcompassion compassion’s Source? (Ps. 103:13). Have we so deluded ourselves that we think we care more about lost sheep than the Good Shepherd? (John 10:10–11).
