A Daily Devotion for Monday, October 16

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.

God is the Father of all things, and we all were brought to this earth for some purpose. I do love the image of God in Heaven surrounded by light, and the light never fading or moving away from Him (or from us). This is a good image to remember when we wonder, "where is God? I need him now!" God may be doing a new thing, maybe a beautiful thing, but God does not change. He is there, in His place in the light , loving us, waiting for us to turn to Him.

Holy Father, I have called to you, and you have comforted me. I can imagine you with my human mind, but I know you are beyond my imagination in every way. You have given us light as a symbol of your love and your eternal presence. I love you, Lord, and I am thankful. Amen
