THANKFULNESS

PSALM 50:23 (ABP)
The people who honor me are those whose worship is infused with thankfulness -- those who follow along the pathway of salvation that I reveal.

COLOSSIANS 2:7 (ABP)
Sink your roots deeply into Christ. Allow him to become the foundation of your life. If you do that, the truth-infused faith in which you are being instructed will become established and your life will overflow with thankfulness.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
One of the great indicators of solid faith is unending gratitude.

PRAYER
Generous God, you've given us so much. Yet we're so forgetful -- distracted by the circumstances of life. Forgive me for my ho-hum approach to faith. Fill me with unending gratitude so that your blessings will continue to spill out onto those around me. I pray this in the name of Christ who is my life. Amen.

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name; your Kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
