“… ask God, who gives simply/generously (ἁπλῶς) …” (James 1:5)

PvM: “Since God is most simple, and therefore gives simply, as in James 1:5, he gives himself, wholly, and all his attributes; and these, by reason of his simplicity, are inseparable. He bestows upon us his wisdom, power, goodness, and grace.”

‘Glory in his holy name;
let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!

I think it’s ND Wilson who says the best way to spend time is to spend it. Let it run through your fingers without trying to catch at it. I never feel that more keenly than when I’m with my family.

“For this I will praise you, O LORD, among the nations,
and sing praises to your name.
Great salvation he brings to his king,
and shows steadfast love to his anointed,
to David and his offspring forever.”
