No doubt about it! God is good, very good. But I nearly missed it, missed seeing his goodness. I was looking the other way, looking up to the people The ones who get by with everything;

In fact, they have it made, piling up riches

And I felt, “I’ve been stupid to play by the rules but what has it gotten me? ” Not exactly pain, because God has indeed been good….but I couldn’t have what I wanted.

If I’d have given into these thoughts of mine

I would have betrayed your dear children who look up to me. Until I got to your secret place was when I saw the whole picture: The slippery road you’ve put them on With a final crash in a ditch of delusions.

There’s nothing to them, nothing at all.

I’m still in your presence, but you’ve taken my hand. You wisely and tenderly lead me, and then you bless me. You’re all I want in heaven! You’re all I want on earth! When my skin sags and my bones get brittle, YOU are rock-firm and faithful.

Look! Those who left you are falling apart!
