Who Is God .... And How Do I Find Him?


The bible says that God:

*is Holy
*is All-knowing
*Understands Everything
*can be Trusted
*Doesn't make Mistakes (we just think He does because we don't have His understanding)
*is our Father
*is our Shepherd (He leads us, protects us, provides for us)
*is the great Creator
*is our Savior
*is Lord (He calls the shots)
*Works for the Good of those who live Him
*Loves us, Yearns for us, and wants us to Know him

As to how to find him, you could start by listening to this excellent sermon by David Nelson, lead pastor at K2TheChurch here in Salt Lake City.

Or you could blow the dust off your bible and start reading it. 

"God," says Nelson, "is always waiting for us to engage him. Every morning he's sitting there in your living room waiting for you." 

Waiting for you. 
Waiting for me. 
Wow. 

Because He really wants us to know him -- so that we come to know who we are and the purpose He has for us here on earth. 

Cool!

Overheard HA!


Do you play golf? If so, do you love it -- or hate it?

Here's what I overheard my pastor say: "Golf is from Hell, I think ... to frustrate us to no end."

HAAAAAAA!
