Goodness

It is our old man that holds us back from being a 

Good Man

Actively seeking steadfastness 

Steadfastness in exchange for endurance

Endurance in exchange for hope

Hope in exchange for strength

An old man will fearfully withdraw from his tests

but a Good Man stands his ground

and with his faith, he faces his test

So now reinforced,

he takes pride in Jehovah, exulting His 

Good name and

Good reputation.
