Who is God?

Tonight at church / home fellowship / dinner group / awesome collection of people, we were posed the question "Who is God?" and asked to illustrate that in whatever avenue we would like.

The following is what was on my paper:

God... who is He?

God is the Father. He is a being that beams with pride over His children, however is not "afraid" of giving us exactly what we need. He is a gracious Patriarch, and a just Daddy. He invites us into our place as His loved child, and does not attach stipulations to His love. He gives all blessings, but waits until it is exactly what we need. He is perfect in every way, and was us desperately to share in the joy that is His Glory. He will never leave us or forsake us, and will protect His children at every cost.

God is the Son. He pursues us ferociously, doing anything for His bride. He courts our hearts relentlessly, sacrificing everything: including His life, just to be with us. He loves us passionately, always coming after us, calling us back to Him when we have been seduced or have chosen ourselves to betray the one Perfect Love. He is coming back for His wedding day to us: his bride.

God is the Spirit. He finds ways to speak to us without ever using His own voice. He echoes the words of the Father and the Son, yet seemingly contradictorily speaks through His voice: the voice of God. He comforts the brokenhearted. He mourns alongside the widow. He hugs the orphaned and tells them that they have a home. He calls all to turn away from empty pursuits and to gaze upon the Glory that is the Alpha and Omega. He is our promise that one day, we will be wed to the Son in the presence of the Father...

And all will be the way it should.
