abundant goodness


Oh, how abundant is your goodness,
which you have stored up for those who fear you
and worked for those who take refuge in you,
in the sight of the children of mankind!
Psalm 31:19

God is rich and generous in His grace. His goodness is abundantly shown to us every day. Each morning as I awaken once again to His tender mercies, He forgives my sins as I confess them to God, showering me with grace and love as I seek to serve Him. I am in awe of all God does for me. And this supply is never wasted on His people. It is always stored up for us. God has more grace than we can every fully comprehend.

There are no limits to what good things God has for His people. In fact, an eternity of His love awaits each one of His children. We may struggle believing it in the midst of temporary difficulties, bewildered by what we struggle to understand right now. Yet the grace of God in Jesus keeps our souls, remakes us into new creations in Christ, forever loving us. Struggling now is only a momentary affliction in the scale of vast eternity!

God is good. God is faithful, true, and abundantly gracious to repentant sinners. His grace is forever shown in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. We are forever loved, forgiven, and reborn in Christ as children of that inexhaustible grace. How abundant is His goodness to us in Jesus! It is stored up in eternal storehouses for those who trust Christ! His goodness works in our lives now as we take refuge in Him. And all the world can now see the good grace of Jesus among us as we follow Him.
