Psalm 100:5 says, “For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.”
Friend, there are going to be days when life doesn’t feel good.
There will be prayers that seem unanswered, doors that unexpectedly close, people who disappoint you, and circumstances you simply cannot understand.
But I want you to notice what David does not say.
He doesn’t say, “The Lord is good when life is good.”
He says, “The LORD is good.”
That is who He is.
God’s goodness is not determined by what happened to you yesterday, what you are facing today, or what you are worried might happen tomorrow.
And then David reminds us, “his mercy is everlasting.”
You cannot outrun His mercy. You cannot exhaust His mercy. You cannot wake up tomorrow and discover that God used the last of His mercy on you yesterday.
And His truth “endureth to all generations.”
The same God who was faithful to your grandparents is faithful today. The same God who carried you through what you thought would break you before is still carrying you now.
So when you cannot understand what God is doing, anchor your heart in what you know about who God is.
He is good.
His mercy is everlasting.
His truth never changes.
And friend, when everything around you feels uncertain, you can still rest in the certainty of Him.
God has been good. God is good. And God will still be good tomorrow.
