Today I need a fresh revelation of the goodness of the Lord right here on earth.
In our flesh, in the dirt of day-to-day living, it may feel like God has failed. Our story might be deeply marked by loss. We may be tempted to believe the lie of divine abandonment. But we must recall: God isn’t through just yet.
I’ve had a few quick junctures when my past and present make total sense: where it all lines up for just a second and I pause and praise God for His perfect finessing of people and time and space. But those rare instances are fleeting and they quickly give way to seeming chaos again.
God’s goodness and His long game feel pretty trite in the face of tragedy.
His goodness chases us down until He catches us completely, and carries us into His presence entirely. Then He goes after our kids.
He asks us to let go of nothing that would hinder our relationship with Him.
