Crying for Mercy and Justice

"I love the lord for he heard my voice, he heard my cry for mercy."

This is simply a memorized verse from the ancient text my father used to read to me years ago. I felt a need to post it. I am no longer religious as religion is typically a reason for too many wars, but I love poetry and beautiful words and I understand the truth of the writer--even if the writer's meaning has been misused and abused. I am quite sure it is from the Psalms of David but which one I'm not sure. Maybe it's 93 or 101 or something. But it doesn't matter. I just needed to say that I am grateful for those who hear our cries for mercy, and justice. Amen
