Amen! "What a good God I have!"
This is the song of a heart that has tasted and seen that the Lord is good. It is the testimony of someone who has walked through the valleys and climbed the mountains, and in every season, found God to be faithful. He is not just good sometimes; He is good all the time. He is not just good to other people; He is good to you.
"O taste and see that the Lord [our God] is good; How blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who takes refuge in Him!" — Psalm 34:8 (AMP)

What It Means That He Is a Good God:
· His goodness is not dependent on your circumstances. Even when life is hard, He is still good. His goodness is rooted in His character, not in your comfort.
· His goodness is active. He is not just watching from a distance; He is actively working all things together for your good.
· His goodness is generous. He gives good gifts to His children. He provides, protects, heals, and guides.
· His goodness leads you to repentance. It is His kindness that draws you back to Him when you wander.
· His goodness follows you. Surely goodness and mercy will follow you all the days of your life.
