Matthew 7:11- “If you, then…know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!”
“Just what I wanted!” I exclaimed. I squirted on the expensive perfume after opening the pretty package.
My husband is a good gift-giver. As usual, he’d remembered months before my birthday when I had tried some on in the mall. Then, he’d gone back to the store at some point and made the purchase, waiting for just the right occasion to give it to me.
Our heavenly Father likes giving his children gifts, too—often in the form of blessings. I am always astounded when his love is shown in this way. It may be the unexpected visit from a friend, a little leftover cash to purchase something I’ve wanted, a flowering plant on our back patio, an especially beautiful sunset, or the healing of a sick friend.
He knows our needs and our desires and always sends them at the perfect time.
