The Lord is just in all his ways, and kind in all his doings. The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. (Psalm 145: 17-18)

The nature of God is tsaddiyq: righteous, coherent, whole, having integrity.

The actions of God are chaciyd: kind, loving, and faithful.

God is qarowb: near in place, near in time, near in personal relationship, near in kinship.

We are children of God. We have inherited much of God's nature: freedom, creativity, and the knowledge of good and evil. In our freedom we sometimes choose badly. But we are innately drawn to live with integrity and to be kind.

To claim this inheritance we are to call - qara - on God which can also mean to meet, encounter, or even to accost.
