The Goodness of God

"I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living."  Psalms 27:13.  This land of the living is a land of sadness and darkness.  When we set our focus upon the physical about us, we can become overwhelmed and faint.  Our hearts can fail when the storms of life come upon us.  The knowledge of God's goodness will keep us from drowning in a sea of despair.  God's goodness gives strength to the fainting heart.  His goodness provides power and hope to deal and overcome.  The goodness of God can make us "more than conquerors through him that loved us."  Romans 8:37.  Those living in this present land need to fix our hearts upon God and wait for His goodness to come to us.  Let us not faint, but believe.
