My inspiration for this book and its title comes from what I have learned in the Bible about the mercy of God. For example, the Old Testament presents the true story about the history of King David, who made some terrible decisions that he deeply regretted. But, because David came to God in brokenness, confessing his failures and repenting with all his heart while hoping in God's mercy, he received forgiveness. David was given the understanding that for all who repent and believe in God through Christ, nothing is remembered against us. David wrote, "Blessed is the one to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit" (Ps 32:2). Because of his confession, his genuine faith and repentance, God remembered nothing against him. After David had finished his lifetime on earth, God made a statement about "My servant David, who kept My commandments and who followed Me with all his heart, to do only what was right in My eyes" (1Kings 14:8).

So, I wanted to write a book that gives an example of loving others the way God loves us.
