Good Gifts

Meditation
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father…” (James 1:17).

Explanation:
God has so many good and perfect gifts in store for you. Not only does He offer eternal life through His Son, Jesus, but the Bible is filled with His generous and abundant promises in this life. He wants to bless you with provision and supply all your needs according to His riches in glory. He wants to pour out His abundant favor on you and cause everything you do to prosper. He wants to bless you with spiritual gifts to make you strong in your inner man. He wants you to enjoy your job and be proud of your work at the end of the day. These are all gifts from God. Every good gift from God is meant to draw us closer to Him. Often times, people have a picture of God shaped by experiences that have happened in the past, or experiences with their earthly father. I encourage you today to let go of any past ideas and see God according to His Word. He is good and faithful, and He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him! Seek Him today and experience the life of blessing He has in store for you!

Ano ang ibig sabihin ng sitas na ito na “mabuti ang kaluob at wagas na kaloob ay nagbuhat sa langit”? Ibig bang sabihin yung masamang kaloob ay di galing sa Diyos? Pero may sinasabi sa Isaias 45:7 – na ang Diyos ang nabibigay ng anumang bagay. Ang ibig sabihin nito ay ang lahat ng bagay na mula sa Diyos ay lahat makabubuti sa tao, ito man ay masama o mabuti, sapagkat alam ng Diyos kung ano yung makakabuti sa atin. Kaya nga sabi Niya ipagpasalamat ang lahat ng kaganapan, pangyayari, natatanggap natin sa buhay.

Father in heaven, thank You for Your good and perfect gifts. I open my heart to You today and ask that You help me see Your goodness so that I can know You more. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
