There are so many that question God’s goodness. God is good to every one of us.

That includes you!

Psalm 145:9, 17 (KJV) – The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

Do you have friends and family that only call you when they need something? They don’t want to spend time with you, or do for you, but only want what you can give them.

The next time you receive a call from one of them, ask yourself, “is this how I am with God?”

Philippians 2:4 (KJV) – look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

We want everything . . NOW! We don’t want the lessons, the speeches, the waiting. We just want it now.

Without patience, you miss the promise.

Hebrews 10:36 (KJV) – for ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

When someone runs a race, they try to run as fast as they can to be the first across the finish line.

When we run the race that is set before our lives, we are to run with patience, otherwise we will miss the mark, and what God is doing in our lives.

Stop trying to rush through your life as though it’s a race, but run with patience to observe all that God is doing in and through you.

Hebrews 12:1 (KJV) – wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.

Think back at the last time you knew someone was going to give you something. Your mind wondered, and imagined on what it could be.

For those who have a true love for God, will not able to imagine the things he has prepared for them.

Can you imagine?

I Corinthians 2:9 (KJV) – but as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

There are so many that brag and boast about themselves. Selling themselves like a commodity, trying to prove themselves to others for one reason or another.

You don’t have to prove your worth, brag or boast on yourself. God will do that for you.

I Peter 5:6 (KJV) – humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.

Before you make your next move, consider this . . .

You are going to have to answer to God for everything you have done, whether good or bad.

II Corinthians 5:10 (KJV) – for we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

Are you affecting unbelievers, or are they infecting you?

Proverbs 13:20 (KJV) – He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

If you’re not ready to commit, stop looking for the blessing.

Psalm 37:5 (KJV) – commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

Hebrews 11:6 (KJV) – but without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

We talk to ourselves, rationalize to ourselves, to come up with our own resolutions to our own issues.

You talking to you, doesn’t give you a different perspective.

Talk to God, and let God work it out. He will bring that someone you need to talk to, to help you.

Stop talking to yourself.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV) – trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

I Peter 5:7 (KJV) – casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
