Seek out God-like goodness

Greetings:
The power of our words impact people in ways we sometimes never really know.
The word  'goodness' is one of those power-packed words from a biblical sense.
Goodness is an attribute of God and it's also a foundation that each of us should embrace. The “goodness” of God is a prominent theme in the opening chapters of the Bible.
Every new day gives us reason for expressing our gratitude to God 's own goodness.
Goodness is a term that is thrown around rather loosely. When surprised or startled by something that happens it’s not uncommon to hear someone say, “Oh my goodness”.
Or when exasperated with the way a conversation is going someone might say, “Oh, for goodness sake”.
Another phrases is “goodness gracious”.
Given the frequent use of the term it’s possible that our senses can be dulled as to what true goodness is  all about and where it is found; namely, in God Himself.
Repeatedly, God pronounced everything which He created as “good”.
In Genesis 2, God saw that it was “not good” for Adam to be alone, and so He created a wife for him.
In the garden of Eden, where God had placed Adam and Eve, there was “the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.” From the fruit of this one tree, the man and woman were forbidden to eat.
It's plain and easy to say the issues of 'good' and 'evil' are prominent at the beginning of the Bible.
The goodness of God appears to be the sum total of all of God’s attributes. The goodness of God may thus be viewed as one facet of His glorious nature and character and also the overall summation of His nature and character. May God's goodness becomes a truth we not only accept, but embrace, so that it becomes the perspective from which we view all of the events of our lives.
Psalm 107:1 says, "Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever."
God is good, but His goodness should prompt us to study His Word so as to know how to please Him, and then determine to live in harmony with His will.  We cannot disobey Him while claiming His goodness.  His goodness is what motivates us to live to please Him.  How foolish it is to think that we can disobey God because He is good. 
For those who are faithful to God, may His goodness ever remind us there is so much to praise Him for and to be thankful to Him for.
Consider what is written in Psalm 100:4-5, “Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations.”
God is good...all the time.
Be blessed.
