I've been reading A.W. Tozer's The Knowledge of the Holy as a devotional part of my day. I highly recommend it as such. I would definitely put this into the top 10 works I've read while being at college. I hope you enjoy this metaphor on the mercy of God:
"We may plead for mercy for a lifetime in unbelief, and at the end of our days be still no more than sadly hopeful that we shall somewhere, sometime, receive it. This is to starve to death just outside the banquet hall in which we have been warmly invited. Or we may, if we will, lay hold on the mercy of God by faith, enter the hall, and sit down with the bold and avid souls who will not allow diffidence and unbelief to keep them from the feast of fat things prepared for them." - A.W. Tozer
