The Covenant


What have I been learning about our great and awesome God lately? Well....where do I start? You see, I have been part of a group of people who is reading about the amazing relationship between Him with His people (in the book of Exodus). Amazing that I too, am now in a covenant relationship with Him (thousands of years later)!

He is

CREATOR and I am one of His creatures, made in His image, for a purpose - to give glory to Him (and to have dignity)

KING and I am His subject, one who is to obey and serve Him

SAVIOUR and I am the rescued, for which I owe my life to Him!

GRACIOUS and I am underserving... yet very thankful for the life I now have in Christ

FAITHFUL and I am often faithless, I can fully trust in the Faithful One

PATIENT when I often fail to obey, "please forgive me and give me a repentent heart"

COMPASSIONATE and ABOUNDING IN LOVE...

"May I live knowing that the people of this world are the objects of his compassion and love.... and to have the courage and passion to tell them about the Creator King, Gracious Saviour, Faithful covenant Keeper and Patient, Compassionate and Loving Lord and Missionary who longs for them to be in a relationship with HIM..."
