God is Good!

I received a phone call from a friend this morning. He sounded different from usual. The first thing he said to me was "God is Good." I replied "Yes, He is." He then told me that his father had passed away this morning.

It is amazing how God gives peace that passes all understanding. My friend's dad had just died and he felt the most important thing to say was that God was good. I have seen great growth and maturity in my friend in the last few years and this is just another example.

So often we (meaning my friends and I) grapple with such large and philosophical problems that we forget the simple things, like God is good. It is important that in the search for true truth that we do not forget the ultimate true truth, that God is Good and He promises to do Good to all those that love Him.
