The Unvarying God

All gifts are from above and from our Father.

God is the unchanging God. The unchanging God must keep

all He saves. God wants you to take all He

gives.

Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? and he said, Nay.
