The phase "God is good, all the time; all the time, God is good" is repeated by
many Christians almost like a manta. Have you sometimes wondered if they really
believe it or even think about what they're saying?
It sometines can be easy to doubt God's goodness-especially when it feels as
though God isn't hearing or answering prayer. I assume that if others were
honest, they'd admit they feel the same way.
Are you tempted to doubt God's goodness? If so remind yourself that your
circumstances aren't a barometer of God's goodness-the CROSS is. God has
show His goodness by dying for our sin's on the cross.
We can't rely on our feelings. But day by day as we choose to trust Him more
and more we CAN learn to believe with confidence that God is good and ALL that
He does is good.
"When you are tempted to deny
God's goodness, love, and grace,
Look to the cross of Calvary,
Where Jesus took your place." - Sper
Newborn
"Circumstances aren't the barometer of God's love and goodness - the cross is."
