He is kind and merciful that way.<BR/><BR/>He does give us a foretaste, Howard. You have eloquently described how He does that for us in His awesome creation.<BR/><BR/>He also gives us a literal foretaste in the bread and the wine.<BR/><BR/>We are actually able to taste His sweet Word of forgiveness on our tongue as we hear His Word of promise in our ears and in our hearts.<BR/><BR/>Thank you, Howard. I can always count on hearing God's Word of promise here. For that I am extremely grateful.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503074923110839149noreply@blogger.com
