I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart; I will recount all of your wonderful deeds. I will be glad and exult in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High. (Psalm 9:1-2 ESV)
Facebook is increasingly becoming my prayer list. I enjoy praying for dear friends and family that I have known for years and also for more recent colleagues and acquaintances. This time of year, amid holiday get-togethers, vacations, family celebrations, and various ministry events, I praise God for how He has blessed so many of you! While I rejoice with those of you who now are rejoicing, my heart and my prayers do go out to those of you who now are searching for God’s blessing. May you see His face clearly very soon!
I love seeing the pics of your beautiful family members. Some of them are transitioning into new and exciting chapters of their lives. What a joy to be surrounded by those you love. Thank you for sharing the news and views concerning your travels both at home and abroad. What beautiful and fun places you have the wonderful opportunity to enjoy. Some of you are traveling because you have been given the incredible opportunity and responsibility to share the Word of God among every tribe, tongue, and nation so that Jesus is glorified. What a gift to be able to do so! Enjoy! Celebrate! Be blessed!
At the same time, why not pray for the many in our own nation and the vast majority of people around the world who will never experience such blessing. And above all, remember the One who is the giver of all good gifts and the One who blesses us with every spiritual blessing through His Son, Jesus Christ! Everything you are, everything you get to do, and every experience you live is but a gift from Him. Why not thank Him today?
Behold, the Lamb of God!
