Part 5 in our Lenten series is all about the reach and richness of God’s loyal love. Our Lenten series examines the five core attributes God uses to describe himself to Moses in Exodus 34:6: compassionate, gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. These compelling characteristics are continuously repeated in the Bible more than any other biblical text. When something is repeated, it means it is important and we should pay close attention. Not only are these qualities of God emphasized through repetition, but they are also put on full display in the life of Jesus because he is the image of the invisible God (Col. 1:15). whatisgodlike #lent #loyal #chesed
