GOD IS GOOD—Psalm 100:5
•He is inherently good – the Lord is good.
"God defines the good, the true, and the beautiful by his being, and they are unified in him. This means that Christians believe the radical truth that nothing good can be ugly, that nothing untrue can be beautiful, and that everything beautiful and true is also good. To attempt a separation of the good, the true, and the beautiful is, by Christian understanding, both impossible and self-defeating. Furthermore, the attempt to separate them is sinful — an act of defiance. For this reason the Christian worldview insists that the face of a child with Down syndrome is infinitely more beautiful than an airbrushed model on the cover of a fashion magazine. The model may be pretty, but every human being is beautiful, simply by virtue of being made in the image of God." - Albert Mohler

GOD IS GOOD—Psalm 100:5
•He is infinitely good – his steadfast love endures forever
"A boundless goodness that knows no limits, a goodness as infinite as his essence, not only good, but best; not only good, but goodness itself, the supreme unconceivable goodness. All things else are but little particles of God, small sparks from this immense flame, sips of goodness to this fountain. Nothing that is good by his influence can equal him, who is good by himself; derived goodness can never equal primitive goodness. Divine goodness communicates itself to a vast number of creatures in various degrees; to angels, glorified spirits, men on earth, to every creature, and when it hath communicated all that the present world is capable of, there is still less displayed than left to enrich another world. All possible creatures are not capable of exhausting the wealth, the treasures, that divine goodness is filled with." - Stephen Charnock

GOD IS GOOD—Psalm 100:5
•He is immutably good – his faithfulness to all generations.
"God’s MERCY is his goodness toward those in distress his GRACE is his goodness toward those who deserve only punishment and his PATIENCE is his goodness toward those who continue to sin over a period of time." - Wayne Grudem

Remembering that God is good does not alleviate the questions, but over time it will eradicate the doubt.
“Aslan is a lion- the Lion, the great Lion." "Ooh" said Susan. "I'd thought he was a man. Is he-quite safe? I shall feel rather nervous about meeting a lion"..."Safe?" said Mr. Beaver ..."Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you.” - C.S. Lewis (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe)
God is good, and yet we worry. God is good, and yet we complain. God is good, and yet we envy others. Still God is good.
Psalm 86:5
For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.
For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.
"The whole gospel is nothing but one entire mirror of divine goodness. The whole of redemption is wrapt up in that one expression of the angel’s song, ‘Good will towards man." - Stephen Charnock
