Surely, God Is Good
We take communion together every first Sunday of the month. This week as we experience the mystery of the sacrament together, we will also dwell on these words of Asaph. As Christians, we claim God’s promise to be good to the pure in heart – to those vested in his son’s death. As we live out our daily lives, though, truly believing it can prove much more difficult, especially when those around us are benefiting from a life free from the burdens each believer carries. Consider the words of Psalm 73 and God’s work in your life as you approach this Sunday.
73:1 Truly God is good to Israel,
to those who are pure in heart.
2 But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled,
my steps had nearly slipped.
3 For I was envious of the arrogant
when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.4 For they have no pangs until death;
their bodies are fat and sleek.
5 They are not in trouble as others are;
they are not stricken like the rest of mankind.
Kevin Twit, founder of Indelible Grace Music and author of many of the songs we use in corporate worship, co-wrote a simple song reflecting on this Psalm. Preview it here.
