Bible passages to read and reflect on this week:

James Chapter 1 (The Key Passage is James 1:17)

Every good thing in your life came straight from the hands of God. Your home, car, and the food that fills your pantry and fridge….. Your friendships, educations, career, and family…. Your talents, abilities, strengths, and even the sunsets you enjoy. Look around you today. Thank God for all the good and perfect gifts He has bestowed on you. If you ever begin to doubt God’s love, consider His gifts. If you ever start to wonder why He does not give you something your heart desires, know this: He gives you the gifts the He knows you need. He gives you nothing less than His very best. God is good, and His gifts are perfect. Take time to marvel at all the gifts in your life. Take time to thank the Father of light.

From whom do all good gifts come?

What are some of the greatest gifts God has given you?
