Goodness is a good thing. And it’s only natural to say that God is good. And, yet, describing God as good actually – on it’s own – devalues God, because He is so much more than just good! Yes God is good, but God is more than good and our word “good” can not describe enough of God’s goodness. It can only paint something of God. It is not the complete answer.
Likewise, all that is good is not necessarily of God. There is plenty of ‘good’ around us, but sometimes, that good, is not of God. Which means, in turn, that we sometimes perceive as good, actually is not.
Well meaning might be a better phrase, but we can all think of people who are well meaning who create more issues than they solve.
Let’s not limit God to [only being] good. Because God is so much more than good.
Just a thought…
