Yes. This is the picture of a God who does not wait for you to find Him—He pursues you.
"Your goodness is running after me."
The Scripture That Paints This Picture:
Psalm 23:6: "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever."
The Hebrew word for "follow" actually means to pursue, to chase after. Goodness and mercy are not casually strolling behind you—they are actively, relentlessly chasing you down.
What This Means for You:
· You cannot outrun His goodness. No matter how far you wander, His mercy is faster.
· His goodness is not passive. It is actively hunting for ways to bless you, heal you, restore you.
· Even in your worst days, goodness is on your trail. Not judgment, not wrath—goodness and mercy.
· When you feel alone, look behind you. Goodness is still there, still chasing, still loving.
A Declaration of Awe:
"God's goodness is running after me.
Not walking—running.
Not occasionally—relentlessly.
Not when I deserve it—always.
Goodness chases me through the valley.
Goodness catches me when I fall.
Goodness surprises me in the ordinary.
Goodness waits for me when I wander.
I do not have to beg for goodness to find me.
It is already on its way.
It is already here.
Surely—not maybe, not sometimes, but surely—
goodness and mercy will follow me
all the days of my life.
Thank You, Lord, for the chase.
Thank You for never giving up on me.
Thank You that Your goodness runs faster than my failure."
The Promise for You:
Right now, even as you read these words, the goodness of God is pursuing you. Not because you earned it, but because He is good.
Your goodness is running after me. Let that truth sink in. And then turn around and let it catch you.
