Lam 3:25 "The Lord is good unto them that wait upon him, to the soul that seeketh after him."
Lam 3:26 "It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord."
Lam 3:27 "It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth."
In these three verses, each beginning in the Hebrew word “good” (̣tôb – tobe), we have the fundamental idea and truth that God Himself is good, and if good to all (Psa 145:9 “The Lord is good to all…”), then especially is He so to those who being in adversity can wait in confidence upon His mercy and deliverance. This “goodness” of God is the same good God Himself realized in Gen 1:4 “And God saw the light, that it was good…” If God’s goodness is good to Him, we must be able to see His goodness towards us as well in all matters. Understand, like David, God may reveal His goodness in your life while facing a giant!

The giant in front of you is
never bigger than the goodness of God within you!
