This Sunday, Pastor Peter began our Christmas Series: The Lord is Preparing for Christmas. He asks the question, Who is God? In Exodus 34:6-7, God describes His own heart. No matter how discouraged we feel, God is compassionate and gracious. He is slow to anger. This series is for those who are discouraged this season and running on fumes.
Compassionate & Gracious, Slow to Anger
6 The Lord passed in front of him and proclaimed: The Lord—the Lord is a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and abounding in faithful love and truth, 7 maintaining faithful love to a thousand generations, forgiving iniquity, rebellion, and sin. But he will not leave the guilty unpunished, bringing the consequences of the fathers’ iniquity on the children and grandchildren to the third and fourth generation.
