Jesus tells us in Mark 10:18 that no one is good – except God alone. And the Old Testament prophet Zechariah lauded, “How great is God’s goodness.” (Zechariah 9:17) Which are all wonderful reminders in times we need a stronghold & refuge. For even when you’re not okay…God is still good. Even when your heart is broken…God is still there. Even when the whole world seems to be crashing down around you…God’s promises will never fail. That’s because God’s goodness doesn’t depend on your situation or the circumstances that you’re battling at the moment. Furthermore, God’s goodness has nothing to do with you or your predicament, but everything to do about grace & mercy…transcending all earthly things. So always remember this – God is still good…even when life is not.
