    The Goodness Of God

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 29, 2015
     | 10,120 views

    God is available at all times to hear our prayers, to listen to our concerns and to be touched by the nonverbal communication of our feelings. In return, we must be increasingly acquainted with the voice of God. We must follow God each and every day.

    In the passage from James 1:17-27, James talks about the goodness of God. God doesn’t tempt us to do evil things, but he often uses life’s challenges to strengthen and perfect us. In the process we become more like God. Instead of tempting us to do evil things, God gives us good gifts. ...read more
