God is Good

Scripture reading, Holy Bible, Psalm 33:1-22: The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord. Form the place of his habitation, he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works."

No matter where you may go, my blessings are upon you, and so you bring my blessings and my goodness upon that nation. Wherever the sun doth shine, the breezes blow, and there you will see my goodness. It is in the falling rain and in the moonlit night. If it were not for my goodness and mercy to the nations, they would no longer be in existence. I see all that happens, even behind the scenes and in the secret chambers. Nothing is hidden from my eyes. All secrets are open and plains to me. Even as man, from his satellites, can watch and observe the secret plans of the nations, so from my habitation, I look upon all.

There are no schemes devised of which I do not have no full knowledge. If you trust in me fully, I will twist man's plans to work out for your good. Only love me and trust me. I see everything. I see your need of finances, your need of guidance, your need to be loved and give love. I see your loneliness, and I know how you hurt inside, even when you are smiling. Even as I see you and understand you, I see and understand men.

The people of all nations are precious to me. When I deal with a nation, I do not judge it because of a few wicked who live in it. I weight the actions and the hearts of all the people of that nations before I judge it. There are good and evil people in all nations. Do not judge a whole nation by the acts of their leaders (or dictators).

Ask me to let you see and understand each nation through my eyes and understanding. Then you will be able to love each nation with my love and you will be able to work with me to show my goodness to that nation. You will see that they have among them those who have good hearts too.
