psalm 27.13

I realized the other day it had been a while since I blogged here, and that realization made me start thinking about what I wanted my next post to be about. See, I always like to write about what I'm learning and feeling, what truth I've come to know during the different seasons of my life.

So, in this season, at this point in time, this is what I've learned. This is what I feel; this is what I know:
God is good.
Let me repeat that. God is good. Like, really good. Like, the-knock-my-socks-off-and-blow-me-away kind of good.

He's guiding me.
He gives rest.
He saves.
He restores.
He redeems.
He is my hope.
He answers prayer.
He provides.
He makes a way where there seems to be none.
He is trustworthy.
He always comes through.
He is for me.
He is with me.
He is a mystery.
He also reveals Himself to me.
He calms me.
He makes me laugh.
He shows me beauty.
He loves me.


I could go on and on forever, but there's just no way to fit Him into one of my little lists. Like I said, all I can say is that He is good. I don't know how He does it, and I don't know why He does it.

But I'm humbled and thankful that He does.

"I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living." (Psalm 27:13)
