FAITH IN GOD WHO GIVES US WHAT IS GOOD

July 24 Faith in God Bible Meditations Based on Ecclesiastes 1-4 Key Verse – Ecclesiastes 2:26 For God giveth to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that is good before God… FAITH IN GOD WHO GIVES US WHAT IS GOOD God gives us what is good by His truth-verities Away from vanity of vanities Midst travails causing vexation-uncertainties So as to strengthen our faith by His Word’s sureties. God gives us what is good by His profitable pleasure Away from madness of worldly leisure Midst possessions bringing stressful pressure So as to increase our faith by His Scriptures’ eternal treasure. God gives us what is good by His wisdom-excellence Away from foolishness of confusion’s silence Midst self-sufficiency along wealth’s opulence So as to drive our faith by His principles’ prevalence. God gives us what is good by His divine purposes Away from disobedience that invite curses Midst personal ambitions of humanistic exercises So as to empower our faith toward virtuous practices. God gives us what is good by His gifts’ worthiness Away from iniquities of tempting greediness Midst misery of heart attacked by covetousness So as to help our faith upon prayer striving for holiness. God gives us what is good by His enabling power Away from haughtiness of arrogant sower Midst boastfulness along worldliness-tower So as to train our faith for submission of surrender’s flower. God gives us what is good by His gracious heart Away from problems that challenge us from the start Midst trials oppressing with their difficulties’ dart So as to let our faith triumph in serving Him with our best part.

If we let God guide us we will have a good life, not one of riches or no suffering, but one enriched by the greater good that spurs us on to endless possibilities of God’s glory! May God bless you real good, sweet Beata!
