"We are bound to thank God always for you brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth.
( 2 Thessalonians 1: 3 )

As we welcome another brand new day and behold the mercy and goodness of our Lord, we give thanks for Jesus, our Lord and Savior, who has given us new life. We are also thankful for our brothers and sisters in Christ, and for each day we are given to grow in grace. God has forgiven our sins and we are to forgive the faults of others, as we seek to live in peace with all men.

As the Lord speaks to us through his Word in many different ways, we can see how He desires us to live and worship him. We can also see how we are to grow and increase in faith and love daily as He teaches us. When we stand in faith, we see God's promise of "all things working together for good to those that love Him and are the called according to His purpose."

No matter how long you have prayed and not yet seen the answer, remember, Jesus will always be there. His delays are never His denials as God likes to work when nothing else will. His love gives us hope and we are also to care for one another as Christ has loved us. We never know what tomorrow holds in store for us and must live from day to day. We do know who holds tomorrow, and this is all that matters as the Lord has everything in control.

The Holy Spirit, who leads and guides us, will lead us in all things, when we put God first. He is with us always, We give thanks for our families, friends, those the Lord has given us, and the blessings we expect God to give as we walk in His will and Word. We thank Him for the answers to our prayers before we receive them, and by faith believe all things will work together for good and God's glory.

May we uplift our Pastors, teachers, and all workers in the Lord's vineyard as well as our soldiers and the leaders of our nation each day. As we pray one for another, we bear each others burdens and are obeying the commandments of our Lord. Have a blessed day in the Lord and rejoice in the love God has given us. Remember, Jesus will always be there!

Blessings in Christ,

Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
( Ephesians 5:19-21 )(KJV)
