Scripture: 1st Corinthians 1:4-6
I thank my God always for you, because of God’s grace that was given to you in Christ Jesus. That is, you were made rich through him in everything: in all your communication and every kind of knowledge, in the same way that the testimony about Christ was confirmed with you.
Thought for the Day: On Thanksgiving Day, I spent some time going through my prayer list and the church’s online directory, and I found myself echoing Paul’s words: “I thank my God always for you…” So often in ministry, like many other jobs, a person can get caught in the daily grind and unintentionally miss the grander picture. If there is any job where this should not happen, it would be ministry…especially when you serve with such amazing people. Sadly, it happens often, though I will add how it makes for moments when the words of gratitude are even more pronounced and enthusiastic. Though the leftovers are diminishing quickly from the refrigerator, it is as good a time as ever to say, “I thank my God always for you…”
Prayer: For all the amazing people you have put in my life, O Gracious God, my spirit takes this moment to appreciate and to say, “Thank You!” Amen.
