15 For this reason, because I have heard of your faith
in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, 16 I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my
prayers, … (Ephesians 1:15-16, ESV).
The Apostle Paul is writing
to the believers in Ephesus. He begins
with praise to God first. Praising God
for all He has done and continues to do.
And then he comes to thanksgiving towards the saints (fellow believers)
and is thankful for their faith and love.
As I’m preparing for this
year for Thanksgiving, I am reminded of many faithful saints who have
personally walked this journey of faith with me through the years. Thank you for being there, thank your for
your prayers and encouragement. Thank
you for your faithfulness in Christ and leading the example in following Him!
Lord, all our praise and thanksgiving is deserved to
You, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly
places. There is much to be thankful
for. Lord, thank You for redemption, for
the forgiveness of sins, and the riches of Your grace. Thank You for salvation and our eternal
inheritance. And thank You Lord for the faithful
believers to journey life with. Thank you for those you have personally brought
into my life! May You bless us this
Thanksgiving Day as we remember to give You thanks for all you have done and continue
to do! In Jesus Name, Amen.
