Every good and perfect gift is from above,
coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
James 1:17 (NIV)
Dear Lord, relationships can be so easily breakable. Sometime it scares me to think how long it takes to build them up and then how fast they can crumble. Maybe it happens with just a few misspoken words, or a misunderstanding, or maybe a sinful whim of ugly words that can’t be taken back.
Thank you, Jesus, that our relationship is not fragile or fickle, and You are not like shifting shadows. Your good and perfect promises and gifts and redemptive love are always faithful.
