“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” -Romans 8:28

God is not a cranky old man that is looking to throw you into hell. There is a hell and there is a heaven, but I guarantee you that there is no one in the whole universe that wants you to go to heaven more than God. If you can’t believe that, how can you trust in God? God is a loving Father, and he wants you to choose him. He wants you to be in heaven when you die. But more than that, he wants heaven to open up to you right now! God wants you to live a thriving good life. If it is good, it is from God. If it is not good, it is not from God. God gives only what is good — he does not give what is not good for you. He loves you!

PRAYER: Thank you, God, for always being good.

REFLECTION: Do you trust that God wants the best for you?
