God who loves and forgives:I know you loves me

I am an object of His love,His mercy and forgiveness. From a cloudy month to this bright day, He is amazing, He does not count our sins against us, he is ever willing to forgive us, the bible is quite clear about that. The psalm 103 is just the psalm i should sing.


(Psa 103:8 KJV)  The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.

(Psa 103:9 KJV)  He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.

(Psa 103:10 KJV)  He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

(Psa 103:11 KJV)  For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

(Psa 103:12 KJV)  As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

(Psa 103:13 KJV)  Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.

(Psa 103:14 KJV)  For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.

(Psa 103:15 KJV)  As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.

(Psa 103:16 KJV)  For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.

(Psa 103:17 KJV)  But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;

(Psa 103:18 KJV)  To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.

(Psa 103:19 KJV)  The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.

(Psa 103:20 KJV)  Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

(Psa 103:21 KJV)  Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.

(Psa 103:22 KJV)  Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

Who is this God?

when i was young, very young that is, i had my view of God, He was to always watching me, and if i made a mistake He would make sure i was punished.

Apart from this i remember i used to love Him, that kind of love that makes Him part of my every day business. I remember at play times, i thought of what He want me to do, i was so much in the desire to go to heaven. If there is anything i miss of my Child hood, it is this innocent love for Him, Just him and the heaven we were promised in sunday school.

Some where along the way, i discovered that when you are obedient, He rewards you, and a new relationship evolved, that of i love and obey Him for what He can do.

I obeyed to avoid bad things happening, not because i loved Him, not that i stopped loving Him, Love stopped being the motivation of my service, i was driven now for desire to become and motivated by his being able to take me there.

So my relating to Him have developed along this lines, i have done alot for God, at times coz i love Him and so many times because of many other factors. this has definately affected the way i relate to Him, and how much i can enjoy Him.

This not having a clear picture of who God is, makes our worship incomplete, we can not enjoy Him wholly, neither please Him completely. I will take time and discover the attributes of our amazing God and father and in the process hope to know him, love him and obey Him.

Will u join me?

First Things

I always wanted to have a blog, just a place to express my thoughts and hopes in God and the many struggles that daily color our Christian walk.

I just want to use this to journal my daily walk with God, the daily strains, the triumphs and His love.
