God is Good

SEE

Prayer is relationship.
No prayer, no relationship.
No relationship, no power of God.
No power of God, no ministry.

Is God good? Yes, I believe so. Is there any time I doubt that? Yes, in fact very often too.

Though I have been a Christian almost all my life, I have a hard time believing that God is good. When things go my way, when I feel good, when I have all I want, honestly, it's not hard to believe that God is good. The challenge is, when things go wrong, and sometimes very wrong, do I still believe that God is good despite of all my feelings and circumstances.

Generally speaking most people know God is good. Since young, I think I was never really taught with this truth intentionally by my parents or any authoritative figures. Not that I can remember. Quite the contrary, I was scared with the idea that God is fierce and unapproachable and He is waiting to punish us the moment we make a mistake. And even God is good, I could believe it for somebody else. I just could not believe it for myself.

As I grow to know Him more spiritually, I was presented with the truth that God is good. The stronghold of the lie that God is not good is the very enemy that keeps me from receiving His blessings.

So I have learnt again and again to fight the lie with the truth on a daily basis. The feelings are real, the problems are still there, the body is still weak. 'No, my God is good, no matter what.' I told myself that.

It's a lifetime process of learning. God is good to me. Like King David, I want to encourage myself to align myself to that truth. It's not easy. Pure hard work. But the blessings and the liberty of knowing a good God will take care of me sets me free.
