*~Bending under the weight of His mercies~*
The words of Zechariah the Prophet, “And I will pour out on the house of
David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They
will look on Me, the One they have pierced, and they will mourn for Him as
one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for Him as one grieves
for a firstborn son."
