This morning I was meditating upon the fact that God is good…how gracious of Him! We do not deserve His goodness, but each day He is there as a good, Heavenly Father. We all have a tendency to falter in our minds by not taking God for His Word.
In His Word, I believe in one of the epistles by John, it mentions that perfect love casts out all fear. When we are fearful, we are in essence telling God that His love is not perfect/good. The only reason we experience bad, is that we entered a sinful world which is constantly questioning God and trying to do things its own way.
Let us today remember Romans 8:28, which says that God allows everything in our lives for our good. Do we truly believe this? Are we going to believe Him that we are either going to be delivered from the trials, or that He will give us grace in going through them? In Hebrews it talks about these two groups of people.
Lord, help our faith!
