"For God is good--or rather, of all goodness He is Fountainhead, and itis impossible for one who is good to be mean or grudging about anything." Si Athanasius

His goodness sets the model for us, who share in his life. How can we be mean or hold grudges and still consider ourselves to be in union with Him?  He dosen't separate Himself from us. We do, Is this what we want? Then, follow the way that Jesus sets before us. Sharing in the goodness of God, forgive those who offend us; blees those who persecute us; turn the other cheek instead of retalliating. Then you will prove that you are children of the Good Father. Counter culture to the world, but in line with relationship with God.
