God's Goodness {Psalm 119:65:72}

Have
you ever known someone who said they were angry at God? Perhaps you’ve been angry at God due to a
circumstance you were or are in.
I
have been there. It’s not something I’d
like to admit, but I have asked God why He would allow certain situations to
happen. One I remember was when my husband was in the hospital and I was about 7 months pregnant and our driveway
needed to be shoveled due to an overnight snowfall. I was spitting and sputtering out there
asking why I had to do this all alone.
Shortly thereafter while attending church, the sermon was about asking
God for help and I learned that I needed to be specific in my prayer
requests. I couldn’t spit and sputter
about God knowing my circumstances and not doing anything to help me. I needed to change how I prayed.
I
found this
recent post since 20 years ago our church didn’t record sermons, this nearly
matches what I heard back then.
Learning
how to pray properly helped me to learn about God’s goodness. For me, the more time I spend reading
scripture and praying according to God’s will, the more I have discovered just
how good God is. And…. I spend much less time spitting and
sputtering.
