Good: full, true, honorable, virtuous, right, commendable, kind, benevolent, loyal, close… The goodness of God is what predisposes Him to be kind, benevolent, and full of good will toward all creation.
Psalm 119:65-68
You have dealt well with Your servant,
O LORD, according to Your word.
Teach me good discernment and knowledge,
For I believe in Your commandments.
Before I was afflicted I went astray,
But now I keep Your word.
You are good and do good;
Teach me Your statutes.Exodus 33:19
And He said, ” I Myself will make all My goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the name of the LORD before you; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show compassion on whom I will show compassion.”Psalm 118:1
Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His loving-kindness is everlasting.
A simple song that we used to sing a lot when Elias was smaller…
God Is So Good
God is so good, God is so good
God is so good, He’s so good to me
He answers prayer, He answers prayer
He answers prayer, He’s so good to me
He’s coming back, He’s coming back
He’s coming back, He’s so good to me
He loves me so, He loves me so
He loves me so, He’s so good to me
I’ll follow Him, I’ll follow Him
I’ll follow Him, He’s so good to me
Praise the Lord for His goodness!
