The Insufficiency of Good

This thought really provoked consideration on my words to express Who God is and I enjoyed it much. I hope you do as well!

"You know how we say "God is good." Well I just realized how that is so insufficient to say. I mean "yes of course he is good," but we also think our grades are "good" the food is "good" that one boy in Southland is "good" looking. With the way we use words today, the word "good" doesnt mean too much.... and especially doesnt do justice to God. I wish I could think of a word to use...God is great? amazing? awesome? wonderful? YES, he is all these things, yet these words dont do him justice. The reason I say this... is today in church I was struck with the fact that God is .... (insert a sufficing word if you can think of one)I had been really thinking and wondering over some things about trials and hardships." by Courtney Schnetz
