真的有神吗？而神是良善的吗？
【诗一百十九68】「祢本为善，所行的也善；求祢将祢的律例教训我！
Psalms 119:68 “You are kindhearted, and you do good things, so teach me your laws.”
（一）神绝对美好
【诗一百零六1】「你们要赞美耶和华！要称谢耶和华，因祂本为善；祂的慈爱永远长存！」
Psalms 106:1 “We will celebrate and praise you, Lord! You are good to us, and your love never fails.”
（二）神永不改变
【玛三6】「『因我——耶和华是不改变的，所以你们雅各之子没有灭亡。」
Malachi 3:6“Descendants of Jacob, I am the Lord All-Powerful, and I never change. That's why you haven't been wiped out,”
（三）神显出良善
在《诗篇》第107篇里面，8，15，21和31节「但愿人因耶和华的慈爱和祂向人所行的奇事都称赞祂；」
Psalms 107:8,15,21 & 31“You should praise the Lord for His love and for the wonderful things He does for all of us.”
【罗二4】「还是你藐视祂丰富的恩慈、宽容、忍耐，不晓得祂的恩慈是领你悔改呢？」
Romans 2:4 “You surely don't think much of God's wonderful goodness or of his patience and willingness to put up with you. Don't you know that the reason God is good to you is because he wants you to turn to him?”
Romans 2:4 “You surely don't think much of God's wonderful goodness or of his patience and willingness to put up with you. Don't you know that the reason God is good to you is because he wants you to turn to him?”
1. 神的良善体现在他乐意饶恕我们的罪。
【诗八十六5】「主啊，祢本为良善，乐意饶恕人，有丰盛的慈爱赐给凡求告祢的人。」
Psalms 86:5“You willingly forgive, and your love is always there for those who pray to you.”
2. 神的良善体现在他施予我们的恩典，好让我们可以继续在这世上生活。【来四16】「所以，我们只管坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前，为要得怜恤，蒙恩惠，作随时的帮助。」
Hebrews 4:16“So whenever we are in need, we should come bravely before the throne of our merciful God. There we will be treated with undeserved grace, and we will find help.”Hebrews 4:16
这让我想起。。。
1. 当我需要力量来处理心灵压力时，神给了我力量。
2. 当我需要智慧来做一些重要的决定时，神给了我智慧。
3. 当我要做一些我自己无法完成的事情，神给了我能力，
4. 当我面对一些我无法回答的问题的时候，神给了我解决方法。
【诗三十四8】「你们要尝尝主恩的滋味，便知道祂是美善；投靠祂的人有福了！」
Psalms 34:8“Discover for yourself that the Lord is kind. Come to him for protection, and you will be glad.”
我们会怀疑神的良善的几种原因：
1. 我们不认识神是我们的救主和主。
2. 我们把神的良善与我们的环境等同起来。
3. 我们没有看到神允许在生活中发生的一切的价值和目的。
4. 我们不愿意在神给我们的生活中承认祂的主权。
5. 我们不理解神的本质和属性。
1.良善的神，总会预备
【王上十七3-4】「『你离开这里往东去，藏在约旦河东边的基立溪旁。」「你要喝那溪里的水，我已吩咐乌鸦在那里供养你。』」
1 Kings 17:3-4““Leave and go across the Jordan River so you can hide near Cherith Creek. You can drink water from the creek, and eat the food I've told the ravens to bring you.””
1 Kings 17:3-4““Leave and go across the Jordan River so you can hide near Cherith Creek. You can drink water from the creek, and eat the food I've told the ravens to bring you.””
【王上十七9】「『你起身往西顿的撒勒法（撒勒法与路加福音4章26节同）去，住在那里；我已吩咐那里的一个寡妇供养你。』」
1 Kings 17:3-4, 9 “Go to the town of Zarephath in Sidon and live there. I've told a widow in that town to give you food.”
1 Kings 17:3-4, 9 “Go to the town of Zarephath in Sidon and live there. I've told a widow in that town to give you food.”
【来四1】「我们既蒙留下，有进入祂安息的应许，就当畏惧，免得我们（原文是你们）中间或有人似乎是赶不上了。」
Hebrews 4:1“The promise to enter the place of rest is still good, and we must take care that none of you miss out.”
Hebrews 4:1“The promise to enter the place of rest is still good, and we must take care that none of you miss out.”
2.良善的神，总是祝福
【民二十3-5】提到一件事，就是「百姓向摩西争闹说：『我们的弟兄曾死在耶和华面前，我们恨不得与他们同死。」「你们为何把耶和华的会众领到这旷野、使我们和牲畜都死在这里呢？」「你们为何逼着我们出埃及、领我们到这坏地方呢？这地方不好撒种，也没有无花果树、葡萄树、石榴树，又没有水喝。』」
Numbers 20:3-5 “and complained, “Moses, we'd be better off if we had died along with the others in front of the Lord's sacred tent. You brought us into this desert, and now we and our livestock are going to die! Egypt was better than this horrible place. At least there we had grain and figs and grapevines and pomegranates. But now we don't even have any water.””
【申二7】「因为耶和华——你的神在你手里所办的一切事上已赐福与你。你走这大旷野，祂都知道了。这四十年，耶和华你的神常与你同在，故此你一无所缺。”」
Deuteronomy 2:7
“The Lord has helped us and taken care of us during the past 40 years that we have been in this huge desert. We've had everything we needed, and the Lord has blessed us and made us successful in whatever we have done.”
【申八16】「又在旷野将你列祖所不认识的吗哪赐给你吃，是要苦炼你，试验你，叫你终久享福；」
Deuteronomy 8:16 “He also gave you manna, a kind of food your ancestors had never even heard about. The Lord was testing you to make you trust him, so that later on he could be good to you.”
【民二十6】「摩西、亚伦离开会众，到会幕门口，俯伏在地；耶和华的荣光向他们显现。」
Numbers 20:6 “Moses and Aaron went to the entrance to the sacred tent, where they bowed down. The Lord appeared to them in all of his glory”
【民二十7-8】「耶和华晓谕摩西说：」「『你拿着杖去，和你的哥哥亚伦招聚会众，在他们眼前吩咐磐石发出水来，水就从磐石流出，给会众和他们的牲畜喝。』」
Numbers 20:7-8 “and said, “Moses, get your walking stick. Then you and Aaron call the people together and command that rock to give you water. That's how you will provide water for the people of Israel and their livestock.””
我每天都能找到快乐，
不是因为生活很美好，
而是神真美好。
AMEN！
