His goodness

I was recently sharing with someone that I don't know why bad things happen to good people nor why good things happen to bad people. I mean, it is simple to say that we live in a broken and fallen world and that is just the way it is but that doesn't help those that are hurting. Sometimes, it is just hard to understand why things happen the way they do.

However, I know that I know that I know that even when our circumstances, even when our situations aren't what we would like them to be, aren't what we think they should be, GOD is still good. He still loves us, He still cares about us, He still wants to work all things for our good.

Today's word is Psalm 27:13, NIV, which reads, "I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living."

David wrote that he was confident; He knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was going to see the goodness of GOD. We, too, can be confident that GOD will show His goodness to us daily, all we have to do is look. Sometimes, we get so caught up in our circumstances that we miss GOD'S goodness.

Again, I don't know why things happen the way the do sometimes. I just know that GOD is always good. I also know that if I will just look around, if I will just look up, I will see the His goodness.

Be Blessed,
