Today I read Exodus 34:3-35:35 and Mark 9:41-10:19. My favorite verses are:
Exodus 34:6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth.
Mark 10:16 And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
Wow! God described Himself perfectly. What a great and wonderful God to be so patient with us when we are so prone to sin against Him. He is always good and true and He wants us to strive to have those same qualities. One of the ways God showed His goodness was in the way Jesus treated children. Can you picture in your mind the Son of God picking up little children in His arms and blessing them? He truly loved the children and was upset with His disciples when they tried to keep the children away from Him. How blessed we are to be able to worship and have fellowship with such a loving, gracious God!
