GOD IS… THOUGHTS ON THE NATURE OF GOD
* He has an immense, immeasurable and eternal
compassion. His compassion is
always greater than our sin.
*
He is whole heartedly passionate about us.
We consume His thoughts.
*
He is scandalously forgiving. His mercy
burns as it destroys shame.
*
He has unbounded patience, unending goodness.
* His love is so compelling ... it heals us. It strips away all our pretense and restores
us
to happiness.
* His grace is the Empowering Presence within that
enables us to feel good about
ourselves.
*
His mercy is His total favor given gladly to the undeserving heart.
* He is the kindest person to have ever existed. His goodness is so outrageous and
shocking ... it is actually disreputable to
the religious minded.
*
He is enthusiastically fervent in His pursuit of us.
* He is amazingly humble and gentle but also a
powerful Warrior King who loves to fight
and who laughs at His enemies.
* He has a fabulous servant spirit, needing no title,
status or position but joyfully sets an
example of simple heartwarming slavery.
*
His love is enthralling. It captivates
and commands us to be the same.
*
He delights in listening to us and helping us.
*
His love is designed to overwhelm all things especially fear, shame, low self
esteem.
*
He loves being trusted. He is delightful
and astonished when we use our faith.
*
He will never keep a record of our sins or failings.
*
He is our Prince of Peace - we are not allowed to worry anymore.
*
He is our provider so we need not be anxious about our needs.
* He has mercy that can never be properly understood
or articulated ... just
experienced!
The only way we can explain mercy is by being merciful ourselves!
*
Jesus the Redeemer gives us value in the eyes of the Father.
* He sees and speaks to our potential. He both protects us and releases us to
fulfill all
that he wants us to see and know about
ourselves.
*
He gives us the fruit of the Spirit as His provision for the integrity of our
lifestyle.
*
He gives us His very own life, character and nature.
*
He is never affected by our performance - His love is constant.
