“The goodness of God is infinitely more wonderful than we will ever be able to comprehend. But the more we gaze upon it, the more it shapes our own hearts to reflect it.” A.W. Tozer
The goodness of God is closely connected to His righteousness. God is good, and because He is good, He always does what is right, and His instructions reflect the goodness of His character.
Though sin marred God’s perfect creation, His goodness remains evident through His Word and is most fully revealed in Jesus Christ—who, in His goodness, extends grace, mercy, and love to sinners.
In Christ, we are called to reflect the goodness of God by living rightly and honoring Him. Through the Gospel, we are made righteous, and by Christ’s Spirit, we are empowered to walk in the good works He has prepared for us.
May the Lord and His unchanging goodness be our Shepherd and our shelter. As we rest in His righteousness, may our lives reflect His grace and draw others to the beauty of the One who is working goodness in us.
