When something we take for granted is withheld, or due to circumstance is not functioning properly, once it is restored we give thanks for it with renewed gratitude; but when we are in need, we learn to feel the prayers of others facing such suffering.
Lord willing, we begin to feel mercy in a very real, and personal way.
