Psalm and Praise, Day 16

What are the good things in our lives? Read Psalm chapter 16.

David recognizes that while we have many things in our lives, the only truly good thing that we have in our life is God. God is the one who allows all the good things that we have and only through him do we even understand what goodness really is. If we did not have the experience of God in our life, we would have no concept of what good really means and can be.

When we look at our lives, we need to understand just exactly how big of a role God plays in absolutely everything that we have and everything that we do. God is the only thing good and all good things come from him, which we learn in James chapter 1. Are we celebrating God for his goodness, and for the goodness that he allows in our lives?
