We are meant to speak of God’s goodness. The enemy will convince you that you are bragging. He will say you’re being selfish and conceited. It’s just his way of keeping you from sharing the goodness of God.You are speaking of God’s goodness not your ability. Any time the focus is on God and bringing Him glory, it is good.
David said his turmoil grew worse when he sat in silence not speaking of the good things God had done. Shouldn’t it be the same for us?
There are a lot of things we can hold our tongues on. There are a lot of things we should hold our tongues on. The Goodness of God is not one of them.
Psalm 39:2-4 But as I stood there in silence— not even speaking of good things— the turmoil within me grew worse. The more I thought about it, the hotter I got, igniting a fire of words: “Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered— how fleeting my life is.
