Fantastic Friday #504 - Shift

Shift

16 Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers and sisters. 17 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. 18 He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created. James 1:16-18

I find myself restless at times and find myself shifting around wondering what I am going to do next. I tend to question why certain things happen and why they happen to good people. I wonder whether the challenges we have in our life are really good for me or those impacted. Then moments when I see this scripture remind me how in control God is in our lives. The truth He has outlined in His word is firm and unchanging just like Him. The gifts and rewards we receive are all from Him, including those things that allow us to be challenged so we can realize how important He is in our life. So let us not be restless and let us be firm in our beliefs in these days.

Have a great weekend.
