Well, I want to talk to you about the goodness of the Lord,

but I want to talk to you about in a little different way than his personal goodness towards you you've experienced.

I want to talk to you about like his holy goodness.

His holy goodness is kind of his kind of beautiful otherliness that is so profound and so necessary

as well. I know the goodness of the Lord when he's

with me in times of crisis or or on vacation. Like, I'm just overwhelmed with your goodness or the

generosity. Absolutely love it, love it, love it. But I don't talk to you about how the Lord has kind

of revealed himself as moral, as moral. A God who has an opinion about how things

should be and what should happen. So let's pray together and because I'm going to need grace for this.

And you're going to need grace to hear me because it's interesting as I've preached it.

We are, and I love the grace message. I live the grace message in deeper life class you can hear, a beautiful grace message. So the, uh, but it's been, it's weird as I've talked on this little bit this morning already. It's people like, but what about grace or love? I'm like, okay, good. I'm doing it right then, because sometimes we've divorced

these and they actually belong right together. Grace, love, and goodness go right together. So,

and then we do a great job of, you know, elevating, of course, his love and his grace. But then I

want to talk about and elevate again his goodness and more personally that he expects

you to be good dun dun dun I was in my head I was going to do the law and order noise but another one

came out so the uh like I surprised myself there all right so let's pray and invite the Holy Spirit.

Holy Spirit, you are, you indwell us.

Everyone who's a believer, you've asked the Lord's forgiveness,

you've become adopted as his kids.
