Good and perfect

“Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow.”James‬ ‭1‬:‭17‬ ‭NLT‬‬

James, in this chapter, is discussing temptation and blessing, attitude, not just listening to the word of God but being doers of the word. The above verse comes after temptation and trials. The best gift that we have received is the gift of salvation.

The gifts we receive are without remorse on God’s part. Today I am grateful for His Holy Spirit and for His patience, goodness and presence in my life.

I praise Him for the opportunity to walk with Him and serve Him. He is good and His mercy lasts long. His forgiveness is a treasure I cannot meansure with earthly rewards.

Today I pack to return to Australia for a few months then back again in February to what God has for me to do. I await His commands. Meantime I will enjoy my grandchildren and Australian family and friends. They are a blessing! Amen!
