The nature of goodness; this is God’s goodness; which is the nature of God. No one can be good without God, he is the reason for goodness. Do you remember a time when everything seems so bad in your life which made you feel as if it won’t end but then all changed for the good? That was the goodness of God. He is the God of the turnaround. Bad will never outweigh the good because God is good. If it was not for the goodness of God we wouldn’t be here today. His goodness led us to Christ and he gave us the redemption plan. “Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?” (Romans 2:4). Every day we see God’s goodness; he wakes us up each day that we see. We must appreciate life because Christ paid a price for us to live. The goodness of God is from his everlasting love, it has no end. If God was not a good God we would not have seen his mercy each day. “But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth” (Psalns 86:15). If you would love to receive Christ in your heart today, pray this prayer. Jesus, I thank you for your love and forgiveness. I believe in the finished works of the cross. I accept you in my heart today as my Lord and Saviour. Amen
