“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are
the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.” ― Marcel Proust
Text for the day: "We give thanks to God always for you
all, making mention of you in our prayers; remembering without ceasing your
work of faith, and labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus
Christ, in the sight of God and our Father." 1 Thessalonians 1:2-3
Our Devotional
Good day Colleagues and Friends,
Truly we have been blessed as we
look back over the last few weeks since Kevina has been diagnosed with a rare
cancer. People have called to encourage her and us in this test, and we say
thank you. Prayer has been our greatest comfort and God is working through so
many people taking out time to pray for healing and strength to go on for
Kevina.
The church of the living God,
that is God’s saints that are in every church and some that don’t go to any
church, have blessed us through their warm words and support. For this we say
thank you. Earlier this year, I told my wife, Karon, that God is going to do
something big in our lives before the year ends; so said, so done, since April
1st, 2014 as we have suffered great lost.
One thing is clear, God has
allowed our many test to come our way to seal our faith, and pull together His
children. We take time today to praise God! We praise Him for all of you and our
service providers who have put themselves in harm’s way at times to see that
all have the best quality of life. Some of you have gone the extra mile to stay
on the job when others could not make it in to their post of calling, for this we
say thank you.
The song writer wrote, “In
everything give Him thanks, give Him thanks. In everything give Him thanks. In
the good times praise His name. In the bad times do the same. In
everything give the King of Kings all the thanks.
In this season of giving thanks
it is very important that people take time to listen, as it could mean life or
death to someone in need of emergency care. Look outside of yourself and do
something special to make someone suffering with a life threatening sickness
hopeful. Don’t just talk about your desire to see a change of better health for
them. Do something special for them and or their family like cutting their
grass or some other kind deed. The impact of these kind acts will bring health
to the sick, comfort to the family, and be in the minds of many onlookers for a
number of years to come.
So why not allow the sweet spirit of unity, love, and
good well to go before you today? May your day be filled with the blessings
from God both now and forever more, and take time today to give thanks.
