James 1:17 NASB
Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.

Encouraging Words...
Yesterday at church we celebrated the Sunday of the Prodigal Son, a reminder of the love of the father for his "lost son". As I read this verse from James I am reminded of how much the father of the prodigal son loved him. He spent every day of his absence looking down the road waiting for him to show back up. And when he did, expecting to be treated as a hired hand, the father poured out his love, his wealth, his all upon his lost son who has now been found. Isn't this how our Father in heaven is with us...giving every good thing and perfect gift to us His lost, but found, children?
