Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above; it comes down from the Father of lights [the Creator and Sustainer of the heavens], in whom there is no variation [no rising or setting] or shadow cast by His turning [for He is perfect and never changes]. JAMES 1:17 AMP

God is a good God and all he does is good. We usually don't doubt that statement, but when we are faced with challenging situations, we may begin to critically evaluate that statement. However, does how I feel change who God is in anyway?

God is referred to as the Father of lights. He is the Creator of all we see or can't perceive, and at the time of creation, God declared that ALL he made were good. It doesn't matter how much sin has come to damage the template; God's original plan and purpose stands till today.

However, to enjoy all that God has planned, you have got to be in Him. We read about him, we hear about him and we see what he does, but we can never truly experience God for who he is until He lives inside us. His blessings are for all his creation, but a relationship with God opens other doors that may not necessarily open to other people who are content with a surface knowledge of God.

God is constant; He is not like man: unpredictable, uncertain and unsure. What he calls sin 2,000 years ago is still sin today, and the terms of engagement are the same today, just as they were with Adam. He wants me to experience his good, and he wants me to know him intimately. Don't be content with head knowledge; seek a heart knowledge of God, and experience the grace and good that only God can bring. His time of favour is here.
