Put your confidence in the goodness of God
Sometimes we try to understand God with our limited human minds. We might think of Him as a strict teacher, a demanding coach, or even a cruel parent because we ourselves had a bad experience with such figures in our lives.
The truth is, that the God who created you, loves you. He is a good God who has plans to prosper you and not to harm you. His goodness far exceeds your understanding.
The Bible speaks to us about God’s goodness, mercy, and lovingkindness:
-
“Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.” (Psalm 36:5)
-
“...let Your lovingkindness and Your truth continually preserve me.” (Psalm 40:11)
Today, I encourage you to put your confidence in the goodness of God, the One who desires to work miracles in your life, heal you, free you from oppression, give you hope and restore your family. Life can be hard but God is still good.
The Bible says that the thief (the devil) comes only to steal, to kill, and to destroy; but Jesus came so that we may have life, and life more abundantly (John 10:10).
friend, I invite you to speak David’s words over your own life:
“Lord, surely Your goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever” (Psalm 23:6).
