---A GOD LIKE JESUS~~
"Who is a God like You, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgres- sion for the remnant of His inheritance? He does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in steadfast love."-(Micah 7:18)-- 
--WHEN YOU HEAR THE word God, what do you think of? Do you think of a stern or angry judge? a gentle grandfather who overlooks your foibles and mistakes? Or do you think of the man Jesus hanging on the Cross?
God is Judge. He does not simply overlook foibles and mistakes, iniquities and transgressions. God's wrath does not come because He is vindictive or spiteful. He is holy and demands holiness from His people. From you. God is the man Jesus hanging on the Cross , satisfying His own wrath. 'The Lamb of God', Jesus, appeases the anger of God so that God passes over our transgression. The Son of God, Jesus, gives us His own holiness.
Although sin angers God, He also delights in showing His steadfast love. Love is who He is. He loves all people. He loves you. He delights in you, the remnant of His inheritance. He makes you to be, instead of corrupt and worthless, perfect and beloved. Who is a God like this? Jesus is the one God like this.~~
-"O God, thank You for delighting in steadfast love and forgiving our sin. Hold ever before us Your Son, the God of the Cross, so that we may be declared righteous before You. What can wash away our sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Thank You, Father God, for sending Your only begotten Son to pay our sin-debt on the Cross. We give You praise.

Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
