I can show mercy to a thief, but it doesn't mean he doesn't receive a just punishment. Mercy is not bringing down the hammer and offering a path to redemption.
I can forgive a thief, but I'm not letting him in my home unsupervised, and leave without checking pockets. Forgiveness is letting go of hate and loving someone enough to keep him on the right path.
