Gracious God

Merciful God

Kind God

The loving God, as described in the Bible, in His love always shows Himself as a gracious, merciful and kind God.

As God of all grace, HE has now revealed Himself to all mankind through HIS wonderful son Jesus Christ, so that all who believe in Him shall not perish.

In this present time of grace, we can turn to God and receive grace.

Again and again, in every situation grace...
