Every Good Gift
James 1:17 (NLT)

Reflection:
All the blessings we have in life are from our heavenly Father who loves us. He is faithful and good, and He never changes! Take a few minutes and think through these questions:
- Is it easy or difficult to accept that God gives good gifts to His children and that He cares for you?
- Write down three times where God has been faithful to you. Spend some time remembering how He provided for you in each of these situations. If you can’t think of any examples, write down three things that you are anxious about, and, if you are willing, submit them to God. Invite Him into each situation. Then, when you think about those situations (because you will) and become anxious again, resubmit them to God. Even telling God out loud that you are giving Him your concerns is helpful.
