Why Compassionate and Gracious?

When I decided to create a blog, I realized I wanted to write about faith and the nature of God. Because the more I know and understand who God is, the more I love and trust Him. Compassionate and Gracious is a phrase that God frequently uses to describe Himself, and I have found it to be true.

If your heart, like mine, is drawn to the heart of God, I invite you to journey with me. Together we can explore faith and the unfathomable riches of God’s nature.

Some may find this repetitive, but I found it has the effect of engendering familiarity with the concept and broadening the understanding. [...]
