Today is Father’s Day in the USA. Happy Fathers Day to all the dad’s.

Constantly on my mind today was how good our Heavenly Father is.

I confidently say GOD IS GOOD…AND DOES GOOD…ALWAYS because I have lived far too long and seen far too many times, God bring great answers to people, to believe anything else.

No matter how dire a situation, no matter what we see with our eyes or hear with our ears, no matter what we sometimes over-think with our brain, no situation is too far gone.

God shows up and makes good in every situation. We just have to believe that He will, and then wait…and maybe wait a little longer…and sometimes a little longer still, BUT HE WILL MAKE GOOD ON EVERYTHING.

You are good and kind and do good; teach me Your statutes, Psalm 119:68 AMP.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans, 8:28 NIV.

We have a Father who dearly loves us, giving His Only Son Jesus as a ransom for us. Will He not also be our ever-present help, Psalm 46:1 NIV.

 

Put an end to boasting

LORD, you establish peace for us; all that we have accomplished you have done for us, Isaiah 26:1

People do many great things. People work and see the work of their hands accomplish many great things.

Some people have incredible creativity, others incredible abilities to think and reason. Some people make incredible breakthroughs in science and medicine, others in sport. Some people are incredible nurturers and caregivers, others incredible teachers. Some people have incredible capacities for administration, others love literature. Some people are incredible dreamers, others are great building things with their hands. Some people are great at all of this!! (This is not meant to be an exhaustive list)

But it is God who gives us everything, including our ability to be passionate about our work and accomplish great things.
