The Earth Is Full

He loves righteousness and justice;
The earth is full of the goodness of the LORD.
  -- Psalm 33:5

It does not seem so when we look at the news of the day that the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord. That the media does not report it does not mean that it is not true. We tend to forget that it may be simply easier to report all the evil in the world. Here in our verse for today we read of two things the Lord loves, and one that He provides to all the earth. Goodness often seems so far away from us, and yet we must not be looking well when the earth is full of it. At times we may wonder how Jesus could stand to be with all the evil He saw in the earth. Maybe He didn't look at that all the time and saw something we struggle to see: an earth full of the goodness of God!

Look with new eyes in Christ our Lord!
