Goodness defined...

Okay, we have some good answers here. Mother's love, Moral excellence, and this from Stan (you know the guy that calls me Giggles)...

In English, "good" has its root in the Old English word
for God, and this is more true than mere semantics. Good is defined by God, and
goodness is that extent to which we reflect God.



Jesus said there is only One Who is good. So who in the Bible reflects God and can be said to have Goodness? It is a fruit of the Spirit and I shall have to do some more digging before I can write my illustration.
