While we were visiting Faith Bible Church in Sharpsburg, GA, this was the question the teacher asked. My first thought to the question was holiness because of Revelation 4:8. The teacher read a quote by A. W. Tozar that said basically if we consider one attribute of God above another then our view of God may be lop-sided. God is the God of Love and Grace, but He is also the God of Justice.
The attribute the class focused on this week was faithfulness. He had some great points about how faithful God is in His promises and when we are so unfaithful. He read aloud the words to the hymn Great is Thy Faithfulness. How appropriate is was for the Thanksgiving week!
Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be.
Refrain
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
Refrain
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
Refrain
