Genesis 1:31 -- On Seeing the Good

"And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day."
Genesis 1:31


I like the idea of God stepping back and observing everything and making sure/seeing that it was all good. Or, perhaps more likely, including this for our benefit because he already knew it was good, but reassuring us that everyting starts out good. I think that knowledge helps us a lot, because sometimes it seems like we're surrounded by evil, but we never fully are. There is good if we look for it, and ask God to help us escape the "dark and dreary waste" (1 Nephi 8:7). Today, let's look for the good, and hold fast to it.
