I always feel the goodness of God to me. There are some challenges in life, either big or small. He is always there to guide me. I must say that He is my best friend followed by my lovely mom. Since mom is with Him in heaven now, I continue to talk with them deep in my heart. Our God has always had goodness to us ever since the world began.
Can you feel the 'Goodness of God'?

It is difficult for me at many times to feel God with me, but I know I am a child of God.

I think that we can all feel the goodness of God in our hearts, as God made our hearts to feel him within them, but our minds can't feel goodness easily, unless our thoughts remain good thoughts too, and our feelings, positive good feelings, as well.
On the other hand, if God is only good, and if all God does is good, where does the bad come from?
This question is an often raised one.
God is love, and God sits at the top of the goodness mountain waiting for us to climb it, and it takes time for us to be as good as God too, and to love that much too.
In the meantime, the differential between us, and God, could be called bad, if we are dropping further away from him by our own choice, or it could be classed as good, and loving, if our actions bring us closer to God, and so move us further up that mountain of goodness towards him too.

@innertalks I always believe that God is forgiving to everyone. He never turns his back away from us.

@Shavkat Yes, and it is only God that can help us to sustain the goodness inbuilt into our hearts too, and help us not to be distracted/tempted by sin. If we do sin too, it is only God who can forgive us, and put us back onto the right path of goodness again too.
We should never drop God from our lives then, ever.
