Let all that I am praise the Lord;
may I never forget the good things he does for me.
1 THESSALONIANS 5:18 (NLT)
Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Whatever the circumstance you're in, thank God for what he's doing for you.
DAILY FODDER
But what if you don't like the way God is working things out? Is it still honest to thank him for what he's doing?
PRAYER
We praise you, Lord, for getting us to this point. I confess that I neglect to acknowledge your activity, especially when I feel, overwhelmed by the situation. Crank up your grace so that I can put things in perspective and thank you. I know that this can happen because of my tight connection with Christ. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
We hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening there.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil.
Amen!
