The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

The LORD Who Has Compassion
Compassion captured my attention this morning. Not so much acts of compassion but the word compassion and the promise of compassion and the God of compassion. I’m continuing to read in that portion of Isaiah which has moved beyond Israel’s … Continue reading
