The Lord is Good All the Time!!!

"The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble, and He knoweth them that trust Him." (Nahum 1:7)

I like the phrase many use today:  "God is good all the time."  Just turn on the television or read the headlines and there is rarely anything good mentioned.  But "The Lord is good."  Our scripture says: "He is a stronghold in the day of trouble."  Truly these are trying times for many of us.  But Christians can not live in constant fear and still expect to enjoy all the blessings of "The Lord."  When calamity and adversity strike us, and they will, we must remember that we are not alone in the battle.  God is with us!  HE knows those that trust in Him and will never forsake them, though we fail Him miserably at times.  Are we bewildered?  Trust God!  Are we stressed?  Trust the God of all peace and understanding.  Have we lost our way?  Jesus, like a shepherd will guide us, if we only trust HIM!  Remember, "The Lord is good all the time."
