God IS
I love when people are showing thanks and gratitude for what the Lord has done for them, but sometimes they make me sad.
Hear me out before you quit reading.
They will often say “God has been so good to me” or “God has been so gracious” and I know it’s just a phrase and it is said while giving thanks, but sometimes in our weakness, trials, discouragements and troubles our hearts need to be reminded that GOD IS. Not just has been….but IS.
God IS good
God IS faithful
God IS merciful
God IS gracious
God IS just
God IS loving
God IS kind
God IS giving
God IS all knowing
God IS dependable
God IS orderly
God IS forgiving
God IS infinite
God IS Holy
God IS sovereign
God IS wise
God IS comfort
God IS our Father
God IS….
Yes He has been and always will be, but we need to (as Christians in the day and age we live in) remember that GOD IS.
Take time to celebrate what God IS today!
Encourage us by telling us — Who IS God to you?

Isn’t that the Best Amy? I love that God is soooo graciously patient with us! Many times we are like a bratty child with all of our demands. Patiently He loves us and waits for us to calm down. 🙂
thanks for the smile!

God is everything to me but I see His provision, healing, and sustenance more clearly today since I’m in need for those things in Him.
mariewikle says
That is so true and now that you are seeing those things in Him others will be able to see those things from Him in you.

god is an arrogant myth for those who cannot find reality satisfying.

Thanks John for stopping by today. I know a lot of people (Christian and non Christian alike) that grumble and complain a lot because that is human nature…. dissatisfaction is something that everyone at some point deals with. God is very real regardless of who believes it or not.
