God is both great and good, without which we would not have hope.  His creation of all things (food, animals, earth, etc.) are formed for us and are good.  People (mankind) exhibit craziness in that despite the miracles in our midst and the experiences that show us God, we forget, get side-tracked, and stumble at every turn.  Our goal is pure to become part of God's family. Each of us were given that opportunity through the saving grace and mercy of our creator God. We must strive to overcome "self" (our human nature) and focus that push against Satan. Yet, we must rely on the infinite grace of our Abba Father to stand a chance for the hope and joy of a glorious future as part of the God family.
