Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above,
and comes down from the Father of lights,
with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
... James 1:17
Whatever good gifts we have, we can give thanks to the Lord who gave them to us.
Of course, we thank Him for the blessing of family, His fingerprints are all over our family albums.
But there are other good gifts. Can you breathe today? Do you have your basic needs met? Did you enjoy the beautiful sunrise and sunset your Father painted the sky for you to see?
What about the incredible blessing of 1,440 minutes you had today to think, praise and pray?
Yep, all gifts from Him. And there is no darkness in Him, so you know whatever He sends is only for our good, and is just what we needed, at the time we needed it.
He's a good, good Father, you know ...
