Weekly Scripture Readings
Jesus declared, “No one is good—except God alone (Mark 10:18; Luke 18:19).” In saying this, Jesus was stating that God is the ultimate standard of all that is good. Only God is perfectly moral, just, and kind all the time. Only God acts in accordance with what is right, true, and good all the time. Goodness is part of God’s inherent nature. His goodness is expressed through His loving-kindness, mercy, grace, and generosity. His actions and plans always result in good outcomes. People sometimes point to all the suffering and struggling that happens on this earth as evidence that God is not good. But ultimately, God’s goodness is seen in His plan to send His Son to suffer and die for us so we could be redeemed and forgiven of our sins. In His goodness, God dealt with the most consequential and devastating thing that any of us must deal with, our sinful condition. In His goodness God secured eternal life in heaven for us, so that no matter how difficult or challenging this life may be, it will never compare to what God has prepared for us for eternity. Perhaps you struggle to believe and receive the goodness of God in your life. Take time this week to read about God’s goodness and ask God to help you be thankful that He is good.
