The Greatness of Our God.

There are many, many words that describe God. Or shall I say, help describe Him. Really, He's indescribable. I could sit here all day thinking of words that apply to Him. But what comes to my simple mind the most is 'good'. Because when I'm in a scary place, I don't want to figure out which word suits Him best at the time to calm me. God is complex. But I don't always think that way. So most of the time, I try to simply remember God is good. 

God has proven Himself to me to be very good. Many more words than good, but He is consistently good. I think a lot. Which some would not believe. But, it's true. I've learned I am slightly negative in my way of thinking. Which I am trying to work on. But since I've noticed this about myself, I have been trying so hard to not only change my way of thinking, but change the reasons I think that way. 

God is good.

God is on my side. 

I am made new.

I am an overcomer.

I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.

If He is for me, who can be against me.

I am saved by grace. 

I should not think/act any differently. I know these facts. I don't have to struggle with things people who don't know God do. 

One of my favorite songs is "Desert Song" because in that song it says "All of my life, in every season, you are still God, I have a reason to sing, I have a reason to worship." I want to remember that in EVERY season, He is still God (good) and I have a reason to worship and thank Him. Because of Him, I can live freely. Not like the people that are missing the greatness of our God. 

Help me to never forget how good You are, God.
