Thoughts on Today's Verse...

God has blessed us so much in Jesus. He has given us his grace, his mercy, his forgiveness, his Spirit, his power, his community, his Word, and he has adopted us into his family. Amazingly, God longs to bless us even more than he already has blessed us. Why?
  • He is a generous God.
  • He is our loving Father.
  • He wants us to be generous like he is.
  • He longs to see us bless others so he can bless us with more to share.
God blesses us to be a blessing to others!

My Prayer...

You have so richly blessed me, Lord, so please help me see the opportunities you build into each day for me to bless others. Make me a conduit of your blessings. I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord, who gave everything so that I might be yours. Amen.
