This is a thread to proclaim the goodness of God. No politics allowed. No debate allowed. Just proclaiming the goodness of God. It was inspired by the "Good Things Trump" thread - seems like we should spend more time talking about the goodness of God.

God is in control, no matter what is going on around us. The world is dark, but God is our light. And God has called us to the ministry of reconciliation, to be salt and light to this world, proclaiming his glory and power and goodness.

So thankful for the great love of God expressed in His faithfulness.
"Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." Lamentations 3:22-23
“Great Is Thy Faithfulness” is a Christian hymn written by Thomas O. Chisholm, with music by William M. Runyan.
"Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father
There is no shadow of turning with Thee
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be
Great is Thy faithfulness
Great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me
Summer and winter and springtime and harvest
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow
Blessings all mine with 10,000 beside"

2 Peter 3:8,9
The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
I'm so thankful for the patience of God towards me.

Innumerable earthly blessings - food to eat, a family, health, roof over our head.
But more importantly, the Spiritual blessings. Salvation- no matter how vile I was, God redeems! No longer a slave to sin, and the giving of His Spirit which turns even the most difficult trials into blessings.

God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow- He never changes. Very comforting in our ever changing crazy world.
