The theme for this month was suggested by our author, Sarah -- the attributes of God. It's a deep subject, and one that we should spend some time studying. An attribute is a quality or characteristic that is true about someone or something. So, learning about the attributes of God will help us to understand what God is like.
God is unique, and we will never be able to completely comprehend who He is. However, He has given us a number of ways to know Him. There are things that we can deduce about Him from His creation. The church is His body, and when we become a functioning part of that body, we will understand more and more about Him. The best way, of course, to understand God is through the study of Christ, His Son, Who born in human form, saves and blesses us. His story is told in the Bible, the Word of God.
Some qualities possessed by God are His alone; others are qualities we share with Him, without being able to obtain His perfection.
All of these things are food for thought and discussion. I look forward to seeing where we'll be led this month!
