Thankfulness Pt. 3

I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers.
Philemon 1:4

There are two that know me better than I know myself, God and Tammy, my wife. Both, call me to a more meaningful, loving, and better me. 

To be loved by those that truly know you is, only, by the grace of God! Granted, there are those that may be easier to love than others, but, in all honesty, I'm not one of them. 

Do you take the time to listen to God? And, even more important, will you obey the leading of the Spirit? The grace of God works in, through, and with others that you and I might grow in our Christ-likeness. When you give thanks to God this day, who will you remember in your prayers?

Trusted and Holy God, your grace is fresh and new everyday. Teach us to walk in humility, with thanksgiving, that our witness is an open window into a life in Christ. 

Heavenly Father, we rejoice in the gift of wives and husbands and spiritual friends and how they honor you in their love for us and others. We are especially mindful in this season of the saints that have gone before us and the legacy of faith and love they have shared.

Lord Jesus, may your love, joy, and peace be in our hearts, in our homes, in this nation, to the glory of your everlasting Kingdom…
