The Bible is chalked-full of verses that describe our Creator as a God of mercy. “The Lord is gracious and merciful; slow to anger and great in lovingkindness. The Lord is good to all, and His mercies are over all His works” (Psalm 145:8-9). The Bible describes His mercy as “great” (1 Pet. 1:3), “abundant” (Psm. 86:15), “tender” (Lk. 1:78) and “everlasting” (Psm. 103:17). God is forever extending mercy to His children and even to those who blaspheme His name (Psm. 145:14-16; cf. Mt. 5:45; Lk. 6:35; Ac. 14:17; 17:25). We should thus not be surprised that the Bible calls God the “Father of mercies” (2 Cor. 1:3).

In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the orange juice and water to a
boil. Stir in the couscous and oil. Remove from the heat. Cover, let stand
for 30 minutes. In a large bowl, toss the couscous with the oranges, kiwi
fruit, lime juice, mint and pine nuts. Serve immediately or chill until
ready to serve. Servings: 4
