In the book of Jamesit says in first capther, vers 16 and 17: 16 Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers and sisters. 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.
Every good gift comes from the Father of Lights. Wow, this is amazing. What kind of gifts can the Father of Lights offer to us? Only good and perfect gifts. Isn't it amazing? Good and perfect gifts, not bad and second hand gifts.
So He is the Father of lights. Who are those lights? Jesus says in Mathew 5 that we are the Light of the world. So those lights are us. And if He has given us perfect and good gifts, how about we use it more and and with more confidence. I know many people who have amazing gifts from our Father and they just don't have confidence in their gifts. They doubt their gifts, even if it comes from our Father, and even if that gift is perfect and good, they still doubt it. How would it be if we trust more in the abilities God has given us? We would do far greater things. I hope this is an encouragement for you to use your gifts more and have more confidence in it.
But the greatest gift He has offered us is the life of His beloved Son, who died for us so that we can be reconciled with our Heavenly Father. If you believe in Jesus with all your heart and confess with your mouth that He is your Lord, you will be saved and become a son of God and a "light" , just like He is.
