Just me trying to be honest with God.

“When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.” Abraham Lincoln

“Jesus…went about doing good…for God was with him.” Acts10.38 ESV

A mountain spring cannot help but overflow. So it is with God. So it is when God is with someone. It is said that there is something about God’s absolute goodness, which is prone to overflow. Jesus went about doing good because He couldn’t help Himself. Like His Father, the absolute goodness of Christ continually overflowed in kindness to those around Him. I think that if Jesus has come to truly live in us, we can pretty much expect to see our own desire to do good, grow to the point where it too is overflowing in kindness to others. 6/21/2008 ts
