The goodness and severity of God!

Romans 11:22, says, "Behold the goodness and the severity of God..." Have you ever seen a promise box? It is a box of small cards with the promises of God written on the cards. Although I must say that the ones that I have looked at, didn't have what I would call all the promises of God, for they left out of the box any promise that was deemed negative. God does have two sides, as Romans 11:22 clearly states (the goodness and the severity of God). The rest of that verse goes like this,"on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off."
Everyone likes to read of the promises of God that seem positive , but don't seem to like the promises of a just reward for our improper behavior. If we continue to be obedient, we receive his blessing. If we are disobedient, we are cut off. Let's summarize, obedience brings blessing, disobedience brings cursing or being cut off. We must choose which we desire, the goodness or the severity of God. It's our choice!
