verse 2: I say to the LORD, "You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing."
Even the best things I have in this life right now, healthy and growing relationships, good health, and (ridiculous amounts of) privilege, pale in comparison to the goodness of God. Not just His goodness though.
How sad would it be if like relationships, health, and privilege, the goodness of God were limited to the earth, limited to a time and place.
Temporal.
But it's not.
Our Lord is not only good, but He is faithful and constant and steadfast.
I pray for the clarity and humility in knowing that apart from Him, I have no good thing. I want to love the Giver, not the gifts.
