Yesterday. I wasn’t feeling well. Then – without me sharing that – I suddenly get a text conversation from an amazing friend. God knew. To get past not feeling good. I needed worship. A great worship song. And God touched Aaron to send me Cece’s song. Such perfect timing. As I felt like simply laying on the couch. Once I received this. I was able to play it – eyes closed. And begin the celebration of what this song says. What it tells me. What it tells you. “Your mercy never fails”. “All my life you’ve been faithful”. The truth this song brings to all of us is real. We all can experience this. No matter what I go through. No matter what you go through. God is beside me. Beside us. Always faithful. Always loving. I can look back on what I though were the darkest days of my life. Divorce. Losing my grandfather. Hearing I had cancer and 5 years left to live. Losing my father. And God never ran. Never said “I’ll be right back”. Never said “This might be too big for me”. Nope. Always there. Always ready. Always strong. God guided. God carried, when needed. And God never, never failed. He let me cry as he “hugged me”. Then his almighty hand gently extended a finger and dried those tears. And led me forward. Drew the pain unto Himself so my suffering would be less. We have a God that is all this – and more. Everything we need. Here. And now. So let’s grab it. Accept it. Love it.
Carefully read the words of this amazing worship song God prompted Aaron to send. Just when I needed. Then watch it. With your eyes closed. Hearing the truth.
Goodness of God by Cece Winans
I love You, Lord
For Your mercy never fails me
All my days, I’ve been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In the darkest night
You are close like no other
I’ve known You as a Father
I’ve known You as a Friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God (yeah)
And all my life You have been faithful (oh)
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God (yeah)
‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me (oh-oh)
‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It keeps running after me
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
(I’m gonna sing, I’m gonna sing)
‘Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
