“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house there are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and… Continue reading

An Alphabet of God’s Attributes

I’m not sure why, but today I felt like simply publishing an alphabet of words which point to some of God’s attributes. Maybe this is an exercise a parent or teacher could do with a child. Coincidentally, today I have been studying Psalm 37, which is an acrostic poem in the original Hebrew, meaning each… Continue reading
