SIGLER COLUMN: Slow to anger, abounding in love
Published 7:01 pm Thursday, November 13, 2014
Our word for today is, “But thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and of great kindness, and forsookest them not.” –Nehemiah 9:17(b)
You know, even when we don’t do what’s right, don’t live according to the word of God, or don’t listen to or obey the voice of God, He will forgive us.
The word is telling us that God is a God of forgiveness, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love.
We can enjoy His forgiveness, compassion, grace, mercy and love today.
All we have to do is ask Him.
I don’t know what you are in need of today or what the problem may be. All I know is Jesus is the answer and if you call him, He will come.
Have a Jesus day!
