The LORD, the LORD, THE COMPASSIONATE AND GRACIOUS GOD, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, Exodus 34:6
I find it interesting that God describes Himself as being compassionate and gracious before He says He abounds in love. Love must be expressed through compassion and grace before love can be experienced. It must be expressed from one person to person. It cannot be in word only. God did not just tell us in His word that He is compassionate and gracious, He showed us in the word that became flesh - person to person.
