Let Goodness be Your Trade Mark

Today's challenge comes from 2 Peter 1:5, "...add to your faith goodness." Strive to be a good person with a truly good heart. Let your life-testimony include this phase, "He or she was a good person" and let that be said even by your enemies. This challenge can only be accomplished with God's grace.

Note: Being a good person alone will not get you into heaven. It is only through accepting Jesus as your savior that will get you into heaven. However, if you have accepted Christ as your savior then you should, by all means, strive to be a good person!

God's Goodness

Never doubt God’s goodness! He is good because his very character and essence is good. His desire is to give us good gifts; gifts that are best for us. 

We must not hinder his goodness toward us by choosing to live in sin. We must not stifle his goodness because we cannot see it or understand it. It is enough to know he is good.

Embrace and delight in God’s goodness by faith. -JB

Our circumstances are not an accurate reflection of God's goodness. Whether life is good or bad, God's goodness, rooted in His character, is the same. --Helen Grace Lescheid

…the goodness of God endureth continually. -Psalms 52:1
