“Bountifully” means “generously.” God is always very generous with His children. He gives us unconditional love. He provides wisdom, comfort, peace, or strength as it’s needed. He sent Jesus, His own beloved Son, to serve as our sin sacrifice. No one and nothing else gives as bountifully as our Father God. And no one is ever fully complete until he has taken his place in God’s family by accepting Jesus as Savior. When we think of all He has given to us, joy should be our constant companion and serving Him our goal. Not out of obligation, but out of appreciation and love.
