Goodness
Psalm 34:12-14
[12] Who is the man
that desires life? Loving days to see good?
[13] Keep thy tongue
from evil, And thy lips from speaking deceit.
[14] Turn aside from
evil and do good, Seek peace and pursue it.
Goodness is the act of
doing good even with the limited resources you have not out of force but out of
a pure desire and hunger to make people smile. Being good make one to receive
good and lots of other blessings.
Adam Clarke’s commentary
puts it this way, the perpetual desire and sincere study, not only to abstain
from every appearance of evil, but to do good to the bodies and souls of men to
the utmost of our ability. But all this
must spring from a good heart-a heart purified by the Spirit of God; and then,
the tree being made good, the fruit must be good also.
