Is God Good or Not?

Last night a car slipped off the jack and hit my dad on the head (very bad stuff). I was at work when it happened. Once I read the text I drove to the ER, my mind racing in different directions…I didn't know how bad it was. But as I drove, up out of my spirit came the words "God is good".  So I started saying out it loud.  And the peace of God just washed over me. Now a day later, my dad is doing great (16 stitches) and is without  a headache. That my friends is amazing!

Here is the moral of the story folks:

When things go bad….the seconds right after that are most important! Why? Because your beliefs become clear and you either choose to  believe that God is Good or that he isn't. And that will shape how you handle your trail. 

In our lives trials are going to come. There's no doubt about it, but we can walk in victory all the way through if we choose to. If I had let fear and worry take over my heart my emotional state would have been WAY different.

God is good all the time. "But how could he let this happen?" You know, I have come to the conclusion (and so should you) that God is way bigger, way smarter and so much more capable than me. That Is where trust can comes into play.

When we choose to believe He is good and that He loves us then we can remain under that umbrella of love and peace (that totally bypasses our understanding). When we choose worry and fear we step out from under it….and we get wet with the worries of life.

Stay underneath His umbrella of peace. Even when it looks bad God is still good.

Whatsoever Think

Are you going through something right now and having a hard time seeing that God is good even what's happening around you isn't? It's not too late to change. Just start saying that He is good in the face of what your situation is. The love of God never fails…Never!
