“The Perfect Gift” by Jenny Wheeler

Proverbs 31 Ministries
About this episode

In today’s episode, you’ll hear a devotion written by Jenny Wheeler based on James 1:17, which says, “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows” (NIV).

We hope today’s devotion reminds you that God loves you deeply and no prayer is too small or too big for Him to answer.
