God is Good!

“O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the
man that trusteth in him.” ~Psalms 34:8 (KJV)
Getting to know the Lord is one of the most awesome things!
The ―Good News‖ is this: We can get as close to God as we
want!

He designed it that way. He is not some uncaring, unfeeling,
tyrant in the air.

“For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to
sympathize and understand our weaknesses and temptations,
but One who has been tempted [knowing exactly how it feels to
be human] in every respect as we are, yet withou t [committing
any] sin. Therefore, let us [with privilege] approach the throne
of grace [that is, the throne of God’s gracious favor] with
confidence and without fear, so that we may receive mercy
[for our failures] and find [His amazing] grace to help in time of
need [an appropriate blessing, coming just at the right moment].”
~Hebrews 4:15-16 (AMP)

Learning to trust God will elevate our walk with Him in a
magnificent way. Knowing that He cares for us, that He wants the
best for us, that He desires to see us grow, prosper, and thrive, this
will cause us to want to serve Him, to want to tell others about Him!

Suddenly, life becomes a ―get to‖ and not a ―have to.‖

Listen, the Bible is our number one way to get to know Him
more. The more we not only read it, but adhere to it, obey it,
cherish it, desire it, the more we will see Jesus portrayed throughout
it and we will find that God has been there all along calling people
to Himself!

Calling us to Himself!

He is a good God!

I cannot stress this enough, because until we realize He is for us
and not against us, we are going to have a difficult time fully trusting
Him, fully surrendering to Him.

Today, I want to encourage you to think about all the things He
has done for you, in you, and through you! Write them down.

On our journey to know Him more, it’s imperative that we learn
to trust Him, trust His Word, and realize He is good—all the time.
