I wrote about my “Mary/Martha” struggle earlier.

This past week was rough. I have been near tears quite often. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m tired, or unsure or not knowing what is going to happen.

On Sunday, I was getting ready for church feeling very much as though I didn’t want to go.

I knew in my heart that church was where I needed to be. I needed to focus on God and others and not my tired broken spirit.

I was pouring a cup of coffee, when this song came on the radio. I don’t even know the title or the musician.

As the song played, I was moved to tears. My eyes overflowed and tears ran down my face. I had to set the coffee down on the counter as I held out my hands to the Lord and listened.

“He is good

He is good. His love endures forever.

Give thanks to the Lord for He is good.”
I didn’t hear much of the verse due to my sobbing.

But I needed so desperately to hear this–God is good. He loves us and He is working in our lives both to will and to do of His good pleasure.

He loves us and He is good.
