| 0:00.0 | If you brought your Bibles, turn to Deuteronomy Chapter 4 and Isaiah 45. |
| 0:07.0 | We've been in a series called My Best Friend, The Father, and two weeks ago, Pastor Robert talked about the goodness of God. |
| 0:16.0 | This series is focusing on the attributes of God. |
| 0:20.0 | And so the first message was on God's goodness. |
| 0:23.1 | Because God is good, we can have confidence |
| 0:26.6 | that he will help us, that his work toward us |
