All the time, God is good.  This works for us, but God doesn't exist in time.  God is eternal.  For him, everything just "is."  We can't understand it, but here is an experiment:

Think of the seasons.  Winter, spring, summer, fall.  Close your eyes and imagine them in a never-ending sequence.  Feel the wind and the snow.  Get soaked by a shower, bake in the summer's heat.  Smell the leaves of autumn.  Feel the winter wind.  Add your own images.  Keep doing this until you can have any season "present" to you.

Everything is "present" to God, not only what we call "past," but also what we call "future."  "Here" and "there."  Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, to lofty for me to attain.  I can't understand God.

Back on earth, grandparents can help you because some of your future is past for them.  They've been there, done that.  All you have to do is ask.
