He Is Good

"For He is good, for His steadfast love endures forever."  2 Chronicles 5:13

That's a song (or at least part of a song).  It was a song of praise to God in the Temple in Jerusalem.  It was sung in unison by the Levitical singers.  There were trumpets, cymbals, and other various instruments to accompany this song of thanksgiving and praise.
What was the occasion?  The Ark of the Covenant had finally come home to the Inner Sanctuary, in the Most Holy Place.  What happened in this special worship service?  The glory of the Lord filled the house.  God is so awesome that the priests had to stop ministering, and simply behold and worship.

He is God.
He is good.
He is rock-steady.
He is love.
He endures.
He is forever.

He is the good God who never changes; His love never ends.
