Bible Commentary

Psalms 100:5

The psalm ends with three great pillars: goodness, mercy, and truth. These are not temporary qualities — they are everlasting, enduring through all generations. In a world that changes, God is the one constant. His goodness is not a mood; His mercy is not a policy; His truth is not an opinion. They are eternal facts.

Memory phrase: God is good — His love lasts forever!

Talk about it: What does 'everlasting' mean? Can you think of anything else that lasts forever?

Prayer: God, You are good — always good. Your mercy never runs out. Your truth never fails. Thank You for being the one thing that never changes.
