God is good!

The sun is out. It's warming up. The trees are getting their leaves. The only negative is the grass is growing. (Negative because I have to mow it. Seems like a waste of time. You just have to mow it again next week. It doesn't help that I have a neighbor who has a name for every blade of grass in his yard. By the way, he's already mowed once and had the lawn guys out another time.)
God is good! But you know what? God is good in the rain. God is good when the snow comes and the wind blows. God is good when I am sick. God is good when I'm golfing. God is good when my wife is mad at me. God is good when the kids aren't doing what they're supposed to. God is good when I'm on vacation. God is good all the time! But you knew that. I knew that. I just have to remind myself sometimes. The Israelites thought that God was good only when they had food. Then when He gave it to them, it wasn't good enough. "Manna? Again??!!" But I do the same. And if you're honest, so do you.
Just a few Scriptures. "This is how much God loved the world. He have his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn't go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help to put the world right again." The Message, John 3:16, 17 "God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit whom he has given us." Romans 5:5 "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: 'For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.' No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:35-39 Ruminate on that!! Have a great day! God loves you! JW
