Today’s Manna!
Scripture: James 1:17
“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”
In a world characterized by constant change, this verse serves as an anchor, grounding us in the unchanging nature of our heavenly Father. Every good and perfect gift, whether tangible or intangible, finds its origin in God’s unchanging character. The imagery of the Father of heavenly lights highlights not only His majesty but also His consistency – a stark contrast to the shifting shadows that characterize the temporal and uncertain aspects of life.
As we approach the dawn of a new year, it’s essential to recognize that even the passing of time is a divine gift. The turning of the calendar is not merely a chronological event; it is a manifestation of God’s continuous grace, offering us the opportunity to embrace new beginnings and fresh possibilities. In understanding this, we navigate the uncertainties of the future with the assurance that the God who bestows good and perfect gifts remains constant, unwavering in His love and provision.
The gifts God provides are not subject to the unpredictability of earthly circumstances. His goodness is a steady stream, flowing from the heavenly realms to meet us in every season of life. The new year, like every day, is a gift from God, a canvas upon which His faithfulness is painted anew.
As we stand on the threshold of the coming year, let us live with a profound understanding that every moment, every opportunity, and every blessing is a gift from our unchanging Father. May we approach the unknown future with confidence, trusting in His wisdom and embracing His gifts with gratitude.
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the truth that every good and perfect gift comes from You. As we step into the new year, help us live with a deep understanding that time itself is a gift from You. May we navigate the uncertainties of the future with confidence, knowing that You, our unchanging Father, go before us. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
