Wrathful

My pastor is doing a sermon series on the attributes of God. Yesterday he talked about God's wrath. Something we don't like to talk about. My sister and I were discussing how every other week we have sung songs that have to do with that attribute directly--His grace, His omnipotence, His holiness--but this week it was different. This week we sang about His mercy, and the cross. But I guess that is really the only way we can sing, or even speak, about His wrath. After all, the cross is God's wrath poured out on Christ. And Christ withstood the cross, having mercy on us!
