Mercy means encountering God through acts of love, kindness and compassion. Linda

Mercy is compassion and empathy in action; it is when I am in a vulnerable or compromised position, of my own making or not, and somebody in the stronger or more righteous position chooses to pull me up rather than leave me down. Bill

Mercy is a basic religious virtue seen in behaviors such as forgiveness, kindness and compassion which were instilled in me early on. Carol

MERCY means helping out those who cannot help themselves or find difficulty helping themselves. This can be either physical or mental or both. Kurt

Mercy is to step outside myself, think beyond what I know or think I know, and imagine myself living, breathing, and feeling the experiences of another before I make any kind of judgment of them. Laura
