Goodness. The word encompasses so much, yet seems so simple.
Contrary to what most of us think, great is not better than good. It’s just different.
So what makes goodness so, well, good? Goodness is tranquil. Goodness is righteous. Goodness is confident. Goodness is peaceful. When something or someone is good, it’s enough, and then some.
Yes, God is great. This is the essence of why we worship Him. But he is also good. He satisfies our souls even in the quiet moments. He provides peace in the worst of turmoil. He loves us even at our worst.
When God created the light, He saw that it was good. When He looked out over His Creation, He saw that it was very good.
Where does goodness fit in your life? Where do you see God’s goodness appear? Try paying attention to what is good in your life. You’re likely to find peace, tranquility and more.
And that’s more than enough. It’s the goodness that comes from God alone!
