The Goodness of God

I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of hearing Cece Winans sing “The Goodness of God”. It's not just a song; it’s my anthem, a reminder of all the ways God has shown up in my life.

I’ve already told my husband that when my time comes to leave this side of heaven, I want that song to be sung at my celebration of life. But don’t rush me! I’m not planning on checking out any time soon! There’s still too much of God’s goodness to sing about and live out!

When I look back on my life, I see His hand in every moment. He’s been with me through the healing of my children and my own healings, reminding me time and again of His faithfulness. It’s a faith that has kept me anchored, locked into His promises, no matter what storms came my way.

And speaking of storms, I remember the many tornadoes that swept through our property in Oklahoma. I could feel His peace and safety like a fortress around us. There were times I would whisper, “Lord, You are my refuge and strength,” and just like that, the fear would melt away. His goodness was—and is—my shield.

I’ve known love in abundance, from my late husband’s unwavering devotion to my sweet Carl, who has shown me that love truly does have a second act. Both men have been tangible reminders of God’s love for me.

And then, there’s the purpose He gave me with these blogs, a way to share hope, help, and healing with those who need it. That’s His goodness running after me, giving me breath to sing of His mercies every single day.

For friends and family who have been pillars of support, for daily bread on my table, for the privilege of worshiping in church, and for the strength to keep going -- how could I not sing of the goodness of God? His faithfulness isn’t just a line in a song; it’s the very fabric of my life.

So, as long as I have breath, I’ll keep singing. I’ll sing of the God who led me through the fire, held me in His hands, and never left my side. Because all my life, He has been faithful. All my life, He has been so, so good.

Please watch and listen to this song. I’m quite sure it will become your anthem too! God bless you my beloved friends.

“'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 will sing of the goodness of God
