To be able to forgive is incredibly difficult, and how He so readily forgives us if we are truly sorry exhibits God’s love, goodness, and mercy in one of the clearest ways possible. I do not question that God loves, but it is impossible to not get caught up the unfortunate events that happen in the world. Sometimes I find myself questioning how there are these natural disasters and murders of thousands of innocent people, but God does not intervene. Going along with loving, I do not believe God wants us to “fear” Him. I think He wants us to understand His power and how He loves us, but fearing something often leads to hatred which God would never want. Fearing and loving something or someone simultaneously is almost impossible. God wants us to reciprocate His love for us, but not simply because we fear
