His Mercy Is Not Our Choice

"..it is God who decides to show mercy. We can neither choose it nor work for it."
Romans 9:16

It is the sovereign will and pleasure of the Lord Almighty to bestow His grace and mercy to whomever He chooses and whenever He wants. He is unaccountable to anyone in this regard. Our desire and effort can never work out our salvation.He is gracious on us not because we deserve it but because He chose to be gracious on us. He has all authority to either pardon us or convict us. Let us not boast of our favor from God but humble ourselves at His feet with fear and wait for His grace.
