If You Look You’ll See His Goodness

I’m sure now I’ll see God’s goodness
    in the exuberant earth.
Stay with God!
    Take heart. Don’t quit.
I’ll say it again:
    Stay with God.   Psalm 27:13 MSG

We are coming to the end of the Holiday Season and although the world around us seems to be topsy turvy and all out of whack there was still so much to celebrate. Although the gift and grocery lists might have been smaller and it may have taken a bit longer to make our “thankful for” lists. It seems things have just become more simple and we’re finding that it’s in the simplicity the really important things in life are become more clear. Things like our health, a job, our homes, food, and family.

There still may be some rough roads ahead of us, but now we have these good things to consider and who they have come from. Let’s remember that God is our Provider not only when things are good, but especially when things are bad. Let’s take the advice of the Psalmist to take heart, don’t quit and stay with God and we’ll always see His goodness.
