Characteristics: My God is a powerful God who controls everything. He and has specific plans for everyone. My God loves everybody, and he wants everybody to let him into their lives.
Experience: Last year, my grandpa was very sick. I prayed to God and asked him to relieve my grandpa of his pain. My grandpa passed away very peacefully. I think that God listened to my prayers and decided that it was time to bring him up to heaven. Also, on the day of the burial, the weather was forecasted to be extremely cold, cloudy and windy. I prayed and asked God to make the burial day be a nice day since it was the day that my grandpa's body would be buried. The sun was shining brightly, and it seemed like it a perfect spring day, despite the fact that it was January. It was a very nice day, and I think that God answered my prayers.
My way of revering: I revere my God by going to church, praising him, and praying to him.

My Shema
My God is so almighty, powerful, and omnipotent.
My God is so loving, gracious, and caring.
My God is a God whom I can have faith in,
for he is a faithful God.
I will forever praise my God and pray to him,
because he is my one and only God.

ReplyDeleteGood completion of the Shema with a unique experience about your grandfather and truly trusting this God. What insight does this give you about faith in God?
