You are good and You do good. Teach me Your Law.
- Psalm 119:68 (NLV)
“It’s all good”.
Yet another phrase that we hear quite often.
But it isn’t always good, in fact, humanity can be quite the opposite of good, and we can go through some terrible and frightening times.
Still, in the end, it is all good.
Why?
Because God is good.
In 2021, Francesca Battistelli wrote the song God Is Good, she wrote this when a friend of hers was going through a horrible experience, she wanted to encourage him that God truly is good.
Here are the lyrics of God Is Good:
Third grade
I drew my dreams on a blank page
My own silver screen
Painted sun, never rain
And love without pain
It's funny
That life I designed never played out
Like I had in mind
Had some highs hit the ground
Some ups that went down
But one thing that I figured out
Joy comes, tears fall
I'm learning there is beauty in it all
It's not hard to find it, you just have to look
Oh, God is good
I've said
Hellos and goodbyes and I've held my
friends while they've cried
Tasted bitter and sweet
Those moments between
Oh, He's had his hand on everything
Joy comes, tears fall
I'm learning there is beauty in it all
It's not hard to find it, you just have to look
Oh, God is good
We're all young, then we're old
Kids have kids of their own
And the days just keep moving, moving
If there's one thing I know
True wherever I go
He is with me forever, through it all
Joy comes, tears fall
I'm learning there is beauty in it all
Joy comes, tears fall
But I'm learning there is beauty in it all
It's not hard to find it, you just have to look
Oh, God is good
Oh, God is good
There really is a lot of truth in those words.
Especially the part about not hard to find it, you just have to look.
Look all around you, every day, every where, it’s not hard to see the good.
