We should always ask

"If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him."
                                 James 1:5

I am inspired by this verse in the Book of James. One sentence provides a tremendous amount of information about who God is and what He provides.

If we lack wisdom (and who can say they know everything), God tells us to ask Him.

He gives generously to us. To many times we feel that we must do everything in order to receive our reward. God has already given us the reward of eternal life with Him. And He gives it to us even though we are undeserving. How many times have you given something to someone after they were disrespectful, hurtful or just plain bad? Yet, we sin each and every day and God continues to give generously to us. I can surely say that if I would have had to be good to be blessed with such a wonderful wife and four great kids, I'd still be single with no children.

God sees us through His Son, and therefore sees us as holy, without fault.

Say a prayer of thanksgiving today. Tell God how much you appreciate the wonderful blessings He has provided and continues to provide.

God Bless.
