Thankful Thursday

 

 

For a few years now I have had the privilege of sending out daily verse texts to a number of men

 

There's something powerful about the word of God

 

It has been written by men, but they were led by God's Spirit

 

It is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness

 

It is living and active and sharper than a sword

 

It is our defense and our offense against sin

 

It is eternal

 

I'm especially thankful for God's word, for the availability to read it in my own language, for its freshness and relativity to life

 

Thank You God for giving of Yourself through Your word

 

Thank You for teaching me and giving me an ability to understand

 

the verse I sent out this morning was from Proverbs 16:6

 

"By lovingkindness and truth iniquity is atoned for, and by the fear of the Lord one keeps away from evil."

 

Thank You Lord for Your lovingkindness

 

Thank You for Your truth

 

Thank You for being a God who delights in reconciliation

 

Thank You for providing a way of escape when evil surrounds me.

 

If you are interested in becoming a recipient of my daily verse text, let me know  I will gladly add you to the list.  Investing in lives through scripture is one way for me to express my gratitude for all that Jesus has done for me.
