And God said, it was good!
During creation, whenever God had finished creating anything, He would look back and say, “It was good.”
We need to take a critical look at that clause. Why would God give a comment like that to something that had barely started working? I mean He hadn't even tested its proficiency and efficiency. Why so soon?
God gave that comment over everything that He created, including you and I. He didn't say “it is good” or “it is going to be good” or “it was going to be good.” He said “it was good!”
What does this mean? What does God mean by saying that it was good?
You see, God is a being of vision. Before He creates anything, He has carefully thought about it and the role and function it would carry out after their creation.
Just like a manufacturer knows what he wants his product to do, so does God knows the plan He has for everything He creates. But the good news is that, everything He has created is good!
The problem we humans have is that we don't know what the good of God means. God created everything to be good but not in our own understanding. Everything is good only in God’s plan!
What am I trying to say? That hard situation you are presently passing through is good! That weakness you have is good! That pain you are challenged with is good!
You just need to go back to the creator to understand what's going on. He will show you the good in everything even it doesn't look good.
He gave you anger, it is good. There is something good He wants you to use it for. He gave you extremism, there's something good He wants you to use it for.
Just go back to the creator and find the good in everything around your life.
Do not deprive yourself of this beautiful advantage.
I’ll see you tomorrow,
Stay intentional,
