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 personal 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.
Prayer: Father, deep within our hearts we want to know Who you are.
