This term means that God is all good and always good. This applies to each of His attributes, thoughts, and actions. If God is involved it will be good. When it’s not good it’s because of the choices we or others have made to leave God out. But if we’ll allow Him, He’ll make things right again. This is not to say that it will be easy, comfortable or pain free, but it will be what is best. This characteristic is the foundation of the trust we must have in the Lord if we are going to have the impact on this world that is so desperately needed.

Choices

We can be defined by what God says about us or we can be defined by what the world, others or even ourselves say about us. It is our choice. What God says is always true, what the others say might be true sometimes but trying figure out when that is, can drive you crazy and at best it’s a distraction. Choose God’s truth and as we’ve said before don’t even consider the lies.
Faithful in the little things

As we talked about in yesterday’s post, knowing what God wants us to do today is not complicated. However if we aren’t going to be faithful in this, why would He reveal what is next? God’s promises for tomorrow are tied to the choices we make today. When He can trust us with the smaller things then He will begin to bring us more.
