O que é bom
O que é bom vem de Deus. A Bíblia celebra a bondade divina e nos convida a discernir, praticar e desfrutar tudo o que é bom — porque toda boa dádiva vem do Pai das luzes.
And God saw all the things that he had made, and, behold, they were very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
O Lord, I have loved the beauty of thy house,
And the place of the tabernacle of thy glory.
For the day before the Sabbath, when the land was first inhabited, the praise of a Song by David.
The Lord reigns; he has clothed himself with honor:
The Lord has clothed and girded himself with strength;
For he has established the world, which shall not be moved.
Thy throne is prepared of old:
Thou art from everlasting.
The rivers have lifted up, O Lord,
The rivers have lifted up their voices,
Him that privily speaks against his neighbor, him have I driven from me:
He that is proud in look and insatiable in heart—with him I have not eaten.
A Song of Degrees.
Behold now, bless ye the Lord,
All the servants of the Lord,
Who stand in the house of the Lord,
In the courts of the house of our God.
For I give you a good gift;
Forsake ye not my law.
A bad man will by no means attend to counsel;
Neither will he say anything seasonable, or good for the common weal.
My son, eat honey, for the honeycomb is good,
That thy throat may be sweetened.
Thus shalt thou perceive wisdom in thy soul:
For if thou find it, thine end shall be good,
And hope shall not fail thee.
Wisdom is good with an inheritance:
And there is an advantage by it to them that see the sun.
The Lord is good to them that wait for him:
The soul which shall seek him
Is good, and shall wait for,
And quietly expect salvation of the Lord.
Has it not been told thee, O man, what is good? or what does the Lord require of thee, but to do justice, and love mercy, and be ready to walk with the Lord thy God?
