The Lord is good.

This morning I was doing my devotion and it was from Psalm 73:1, which renminds us that the Lord is good and gracious to those who love Him.  We all know that the Lord is good in our heads but many times we fail to move it from our heads to our hearts.  Our heart is where the issues of life are.  Many times in our lives we will not feel that the Lord is good.  Circumstances, situations and people can really attacked the concept of the goodness of God.  You can find yourself under the burdens of problems and betrayal and the goodness of God can seem like a foreign concept.  In those times you need to stand in faith and the word of God and declare that the Lord is good.  One time I was at a very low point of my life and ministry.  God in His grace sent an old friend to me and he encouraged me and reminded me about God's goodness.  This helped me and I went on to bigger and better things.  The grace of God is a wonderful thing to know and live in.  The grace of God is the blessing that comes because of Jesus Christ.  Jesus died so we could have eternal and abundant life.  We will never deserve or earn the grace and goodness of God so my exhortation is to just enjoy and live in it.  Cast all you cares on Him this morning and let Him show his grace. mercy and goodness today in your life.
