You may be asking, "Why oh why would she choose a picture of a girl holding worms for this title?"
Perspective. It is all about perspective.
God is good all the time. For some people this is truth. For others this makes them cringe.
See for some no matter what their present circumstance looks like they know He is good. They don't have to try to believe that; they just know. They have peace. They may not see it in their circumstance or feel it; they are just convinced.
However, for others in their present circumstance they doubt his goodness or the don't see how He is good or could be good. They feel no hope or feel cursed or even worse not loved. Their perspective is a mixture of bad feelings and shady views.
Perspective. Changes everything.
See my little girl was holding those worms. She held them up proudly for the camera. For some they see that picture and think yuck! Gross!!! Dirty!!!!!! Mama teach her better.
Others see that picture and think words like brave. Fun. Silly. Explorer. You go girl!!!
See my little girl picked up those slimy dirty worms and laughed. She held them in her hands. She named them. She went digging for more. Her perspective on worms weren't changed because of how they looked or felt. They weren't changed when brother or dad told her how disgusting they are. She had convinced her heart that these worms were good.
She decided they were good. Nothing was going to change her mind. Not people's opinion. Not the way the worm felt on her skin. Not the way they looked either.
So... What about you? Are you going to let the world tell you God is not good? Or are you going to convince your heart and mind the opposite? Are you going to allow your feelings to rule over truth? Or are you going to speak to your feelings and tell them to chill? Are you going to look around and at your circumstance and choose what you see? Or are you going to choose a different perspective?
I challenge you this week to change your perspective. I stand by my title.
God is good all the time. My feelings or circumstance doesn't change that. I convinced my heart and mind a long time ago and now I can declare it over and over again.
Convince your heart and mind that your feelings or what you see right now happening in your life does not determine whether or not He is a good God. Claim it every minute if you have to. Say it out loud. Write it down. Declare it and it will change your perspective.
