God, the Source of All Good

BETTE C. GRAHAM

Mankind today is being jostled out of complacent dependency on the material and physical to gain its desires. Men are weighing their values and questioning their sources of help, happiness, and fulfillment. Such developments as nuclear energy, population growth, and crumbling theological concepts are shaking their traditional material security and forcing expansion of thought. Men are looking in new directions and are closer to finding solutions to their problems than ever before.

Centuries ago there lived an individual who proved by his works that God is the source of all good. Through his understanding of God he met every type of human need. Christ Jesus was living proof that Spirit is the source of all creation and that man experiences fulfillment through his relationship with God.

The Bible is full of the truth that God helps men because God controls His creation with omnipotence. In I Chronicles we read: "Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all. Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all."^{ I Chron. 29:11, 12;}
