You are good


You are good. You always have been. You are there. You always will be. You are kind and merciful and loving and righteous and grace. I never feel like I'm in a place where I can rightly and wholly praise you. And I don't know if I ever will be. 
If it weren't for your Son, I wouldn't have my mediator. I wouldn't have my high priest. I wouldn't have my intercessor. I wouldn't have my friend. God, you are so good. You deserve more than I can ever say about you. You are worthy of more than my little words of thanksgiving and praise. 
Jesus, you taught me how to love. You showed me what it looks like to love. And your love transforms me. It changes me. It corrects me. It convicts me. Even if I might not love you, or even like you, all the time, I know that you will. Because you are the most perfect form of love. 
While I was still a sinner, you died for me. While I was dead in my trespasses, you came for me. Thank you for being patient. Thank you for being so wonderful to me. Your love is enough. Your Word is enough. You are the infinite Yes. In a world of hurt and pain and turbulence and change, you're the same.
 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in thy sight. Oh Lord, my strength and my redeemer.
