Day 18: A Second Of Good

AND WE KNOW THAT...

Tick. Tick. Tick.

IN

ALL

THINGS...

Tick. Tick. Tick.

GOD

WORKS

FOR THE GOOD...

Tick. Tick. Tick.

OF THOSE

WHO LOVE

HIM

 (Romans 8:28).

Because GOD'S PROMISE

is a PROMISE,

and GOD always keeps HIS PROMISES

IN ALL THINGS

Tick. Tick. Tick.

IN ALL THINGS,

the GOOD

and

the not-so-GOOD,

GOD WORKS FOR THE GOOD.

Tick. Tick. Tick.

Because

GOD IS GOOD

and that is all HE knows how to be.

Tick. Tick. Tick.

Is GOD GOOD when things are not going so GOOD in your life?

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Is GOD GOOD when the feelings that you are feeling don't feel so GOOD?

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Because GOD IS ALWAYS GOOD

because

 HE takes you

from where you are

and

from what you are feeling

and

from what you are experiencing

deeper into

HIS HEART.

For HE is the GOOD in

ALL THINGS.

"If GOD is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31)

IN ALL THINGS~

"Who shall separate us from the love of CHRIST?

Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?"*

NOTHING removes GOD'S GOOD.

"Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through HIM who loved us [so much that HE died for us]" *(Romans 8:35,37).

What is one of your

ALL THINGS

that is striving to steal

HIS PEACE

HIS JOY

HIS HOPE

from your precious

SECONDS.

You know what I am talking about,

as your LIFE

TICKS, TICKS,TICKS,

and with each

TICK,TICK, TICK

something

CHANGES

besides the time.

The WAITING for what is next.

The WAITING for a better next.

The WAITING for your answer to your prayer

that you haven't ceased praying about.

The WAITING for HIS GOOD to happen.

But there HE IS~

THE SAME GOD

who IS STILL in your circumstance

who IS STILL in your ________

with HIS PROMISE that

HE WILL WORK ALL THINGS FOR THE GOOD

OF THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.

But HE has already worked for

THE GOOD  for those who LOVE HIM.

Oh HIS ULTIMATE GOOD

for your ULTIMATE GOOD

the SECOND you absorb

HIS GOOD PROMISE

who is THE GOOD in ALL THINGS~

"This is how much GOD loved the world:

HE gave HIS SON, HIS one and only SON. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in HIM, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. GOD didn’t go to all the trouble of sending HIS SON merely to point an accusing finger,

telling the world how bad it was. HE came to help, to put the world right again.

Anyone who trusts in HIM is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust HIM has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind SON OF GOD when introduced to HIM" 

(John 3:16).

Let HIS GOOD PROMISE overwhelm you

in this very SECOND, 

as it just overwhelmed me again

to bring me back

TO THE GOOD

WHO

is in

ALL THINGS.

GOD did work ALL THINGS FOR THE GOOD

FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM,

for those

who 

LOVE HIS SON.

Tick. Tick. Tick.

You will have

 A GOOD DAY

because

"GOD IS GOOD"
