Merciful Job

The merciful are those who manifest compassion to the poor, the suffering, and the oppressed. Job declares,  I delivered the poor that cried, and the fatherless,
and him that had none to help him.
The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me:
and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.
I put on righteousness, and it clothed me:
my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
I was eyes to the blind, and feet was I to the lame.
I was a father to the poor:
and the cause which I knew not I searched out.
Job 29:12-16/Thoughts From The Mount Of Blessing p.22,23 E.G.W.
