Gifts

James 1:17, Every good gift and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of Lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

Every day we thank God for a new day. It is easy to thank God like reciting an old written prayer. It is quite another thing to realize the truth and real-life encounters with these gifts.

Many of us, myself included, give ourselves undo credit for anything we accomplished. We never stopped to give credit where it is due. Our Heavenly Father.

If we take the time to think about God's gifts, we will begin to realize the depth of His love for us. I never counted how many verses in the Bible refer to God's gift to His creation. Think about it, even being born is a gift.

When God first saw you, and that was before creation, He had a plan for you, to bless you and help you, and show you the way back to Him for eternity. The Holy Spirit was sent to teach, help, and guide you through to that same goal. God's plan was for you to be happy and healthy, and enjoy all of His gifts.

If we live our lives with the knowledge that each and every thing in our lives is a gift for our good, we will live a great life. satan resides in this broken world, and he tries very hard to destroy God's perfect plan. You can listen to God, or you can listen to satan. The choice is yours.

God gives us good things. They are gifts or blessings. God is so good, that if we slip, we are helped to learn what not to do. Learning from mistakes is a blessing too, because it can help you see God’s love for you. There are times that you may come to recognize that fact, months or years later.

When you walk with God, life is one giant blessing. Be thankful for everything. Think about this. Suppose you work hard and sacrifice to give a loved one a special gift. Suppose that loved one says, I don't need this, and puts it down as if it was garbage. Get the idea?

Ephesians 2 :8-9, For by Grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God oh, not the result of works, so that no one may boast. 

God bless you and your family. 

Praise The Lord!

Remember Jesus loves you.

Prayer of Salvation.

Lord Jesus, please forgive all of my sins, and come into my heart as my personal savior. I want to serve Only You. 

Praise The Lord! 

Amen
