Knowing the Father of Lights

 “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”

‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭17‬ ‭KJV‬‬

As James, Jesus’s half brother tells us, “Every gift God freely gives us is good and perfect, streaming down from the Father of lights, Who shines from the heavens with no hidden shadow or darkness and is never subject to change.”  Without exception, God’s gifts which are our legacy, are complete, wholesome, abundant, sufficient, good and perfect!  They come from above proceeding like light rays from its Source, the Father of lights.  Jesus calls us the light of the world and Paul said that we are shining lights in this crooked and perverse generation.  God, our Father, created angels but He brought us into new birth, born from above, as Jesus told Nicodemus.  We are lights from above.  The more we know God, our Father, we realise that there is nothing evil, no distortion, no hidden agenda, no evil hiding, nor any shadow of shifting to stop or intercept the light - in total contrast to the perverted passions of sin and the deceptions of satan, claiming the illegitimate parenthood of mankind.  The more we know Him, the more we find how beautiful, how holy, how loving our Father of lights is.  Hallelujah!
