So often I have looked at the screen of my computer and wanted to write about God - who He is. I always feel so tongue/finger tied. He is so great and my words so inadequate to write about Him.
So today, I will include a summary of the Attributes of God, written by Dr. William R. Bright, the founder of Campus Crusade for Christ, International:
- Because God is spirit...I will seek intimate fellowship with Him.
- Because God is all-powerful...He can help me with anything.
- Because God is ever-present...He is always with me.
- Because God knows everything...I will go to Him with all my questions and concerns.
- Because God is sovereign...I will joyfully submit to His will.
- Because God is holy...I will devote myself to Him in purity, worship and service.
- Because God is absolute truth...I will believe what He says and live accordingly.
- Because God is righteous...I will live by His standards.
- Because God is just...He will treat me fairly.
- Because God is love...He is unconditionally committed to my well being.
- Because God is merciful...He forgives me of my sins when I sincerely confess them.
- Because God is faithful...I will trust Him to always keep His promises.
- Because God never changes...my future is secure and eternal.
Father, deep within our hearts we want to know You more. Amen
