Getting to know Him...

I think one of the comforting parts of trying to do what is right and relying on God is that I have been able to learn of Him.  He is kind and gentle.  He is patient. He believes in me. He intervenes when asked and will never make me do anything because He knows I learn best by choosing.  He is trustworthy.  He has sharp foresight.  He is loving.  He lives to teach, to bless, to persuade, to save, to comfort, to support and to strengthen.  And He is perfect.  Perfect in timing, consideration and forgiveness.  He is my Father and I want to be like Him.  I recognize these qualities in many of His servants and I can see it is in these qualities that we can measure our likeness to Him.
