Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. (Romans 11:22)
Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? (Romans 2:4)
And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. (Jude 1:23)
Today I read the first verse listed and it sent my mind on a recently familiar exercise. God works in our lives to bring us to repentance. Until we repent, everything that happens to us is to bring us to repentance — the good things (Romans 2:4) and the hard things (Jude 1:23).
When we deal with people, we are sometimes good (soft) and other times “mean” (hard), but our goal is to bring them to repentance.
Even when God is good to you, it is so that you will come to repentance.
God calls all men everywhere to repentance.
You may have experienced the goodness of God and you may think that you are in the family of God, but if you’ve never come to repentance, that goodness is calling you to Him and soon it may become severity trying to drive you to Him. But you must come to Jesus, the Lord of all to finally have God’s goodness.
As long as you insist on doing your own thing, you will never end up with God’s goodness. He will cut you off from Himself altogether.
Turn from your pride and yourself and submit to the Lord Jesus Christ!
You Think Too Much! 
That’s good. Amen!
