''The LORD bless you and keep
you; the LORD make His face
shine upon you and be gracious to you;
the LORD turn His face toward you and

give you peace.''

~Numbers 6:24-26

  1. Hi. You don't know me, but I wanted to follow your blog because I noticed that you like a lot of the same things I do. My name I use for my blog is Beatrice, but it's really Coral. You can take your pick of which to call me.

  2. The quality of mercy is not strain'd,
    It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
    Upon the place beneath: it is twice bless’d;
    It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.
    ’Tis mightiest in the mightiest; it becomes
    The throned monarch better than his crown;
    His sceptre shows the force of temporal power,
    The attribute to awe and majesty,
    Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings;
    But mercy is above this sceptred sway,
    It is enthroned in the hearts of kings,
    It is an attribute to God himself;
    And earthly power doth then show likest God’s,
    When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew,
    Though justice be thy plea, consider this,
    That in the course of justice none of us
    Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy;
    And that same prayer, doth teach us all to render
    The deeds of mercy.

    If you look on the part of my blog where you replied, you'll find the answers to your questions.
