pointings towards truth..

Mercy points towards truth. This in all my reason (as the Holy Spirit guides my Scripture reading, etc.) this is the conclusion I've come to for now. I realize that I can logic my way towards truth and for me, truth can be settled in myself, but when I deal with others, it isn't fact that points to truth; it's some sort of deed. I'm still working through this logic, but it kinda makes sense to me. A counselor should be quick to listen and slow to speak, quick to show mercy and quick to reserve judgment.
