Thoughts for the Day, June 23, 2020

Today, we are back to some words of wisdom from our friend James. With all the changes the world is bringing right now…James says put your faith in God and the gift of his word. 

James 1: 17-18 tells us:

“Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow. He chose to give birth to us by giving us His true word.” (NLT)

If we want a stress release—the word of God is the answer. James tells us several important things in this short passage. First, God’s word is good and perfect. It is infallible. Second, His word is true and unchanging. It is dependable and right. Third,  God’s word can change your life. When I read the Bible cover to cover in a one-year period my life changed drastically. In the midst of  these trying days, I find God’s word calming and reassuring. It can be food for your soul and transforming to the heart. Have a blessed day!
