The prophet Zenock said, "thou are angry, O Lord, with the people because the will not understand thy mercies, which thou hast bestowed upon them because of thy Son."
So, its all a lack of understanding! Mercy is extended but don't get it. Throughout the scriptures the Lord says that he is merciful to those that believe. Do we really believe that He is there and will take of us as we have faith in him? Sometimes our faith has to be tried. The mercy doesn't come until have the trial of our faith.
There is a God. He is merciful. We don't have to go it alone in this life. We must cast off our unbelief and begin to believe in an unseen God. The blessings and miracles won't come unless we do this. In fact, we will not know that His arm was extended because we didn't take it.
The first principle of the gospel is to have faith (believe in His words and give them place in your heart). We will then begin to understand how merciful the Lord really is.
