God is Good - All the Time
11 But then I recall all you have done, O Lord;
I remember your wonderful deeds of long ago.
12 They are constantly in my thoughts.
I cannot stop thinking about your mighty works.
I've been here. I've been terribly discouraged and thought that God would never do anything good again in my life, but He always has. Faith pleases God. We complicate faith sometimes. We get this idea that to have faith we have to know exactly what we are believing for and be able to specifically name it. We say we are believing for this specific thing, then we are disappointed. I think faith is simpler. It's what is being demonstrated in the verses above. Faith is simply recalling what God has done and the promises of His Word till you become convinced that God will not fail you. Faith is the constant conviction that God keeps His Word and you don't have to worry. Faith rest in the wonder of the goodness of God, even when you can't see how what He is doing is good.
