Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

We should always give thanks to God for the good in our lives, for His promises are true and He never changes. We can trust His faithfulness.
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23, ESV
We know that God is faithful in love, grace, mercy, and forgiveness, because the cross of Christ proved His faithfulness.
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.
James 1:2-3, ESV
God wants strong, faithful followers and friends.
Sometimes He allows bad things to happen. Sometimes He sends them.
It is to grow us in Christ, The Faithful One who endured trials God us.
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.
Hebrews 10:23, ESV

But I will sing of your strength; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning. For you have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress.
Psalm 59:16, ESV
Do you praise God daily for what He has done, is doing, and will do? Do you have a song on your lips every morning praising God’s holy name?
Do it. He is worthy (and it makes your day at least a little better.)

For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
Hosea 6:6, ESV
The Lord is looking for faithful servants and sons (and daughters!), those who sacrifice of themselves for the sake of Christ through whom we find our adoption – not merely giving out of their abundance, who give out of love, not obligation.
