Like many, I learned the childhood prayer that begins, “God is great, God is good.” What would God’s greatness be without His goodness to give it meaning? God is great in goodness. The origins of the word “great,” in Hebrew, refers to a cord of rope made strong by twisting and binding it together. God is great because His strength and goodness are bound together with singular purpose. We can experience this same strength when we are bound to that same purpose of blessing others.
“O LORD my God, You are very great; You are clothed with honor and majesty.” Ps.104.1 “Conversations Within” ts 1/19/2021
