But true, confident, and right. This kind of goodness does not come from man, but from God. He is the author and perfecter of goodness.
Spend time with reading these verses and may God show you His powerful goodness and lead you to a deeper understanding of what is right. He desires for you to know Him better and live a good and abundant life.
