Baptism,Coming Close to God



Scripture: "But You, O Lord, are a God of compassion and mercy, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness." Psalm 86:15

Hard to Get Close

Do you fear God getting really mad at you anytime you do something wrong? I know how you feel.  I used to always think I was disappointing God, frustrating Him, or just making Him angry. I couldn’t approach a God like that, fearing that He would just punish me if I came near. The third way God described Himself in Exodus 34:6 is patient, or slow to anger. But I couldn’t see Him that way, no matter how hard I tried.
