Living in Gratitude

Jesus Is Lord
Imitating Jesus

Clothe Yourselves with Christ

Psalm 107:1-9The Message (MSG)
107 1-3 Oh, thank God—he’s so good!
    His love never runs out.
All of you set free by God, tell the world!
    Tell how he freed you from oppression,
Then rounded you up from all over the place,
    from the four winds, from the seven seas.
4-9 Some of you wandered for years in the desert,
    looking but not finding a good place to live,
Half-starved and parched with thirst,
    staggering and stumbling, on the brink of exhaustion.
Then, in your desperate condition, you called out to God.
    He got you out in the nick of time;
He put your feet on a wonderful road
    that took you straight to a good place to live.
So thank God for his marvelous love,
    for his miracle mercy to the children he loves.
He poured great draughts of water down parched throats;
    the starved and hungry got plenty to eat.

For Reflection
Not just studying, not just talking, but also, living your life in gratitude to God for all that comes to you through His grace is the greatest gift God could receive from you.

Pray
that you will live your life as a mirror of God's love and holiness and in the morality of Christ.  Pray that you will live free from common worldly practices, advocate for justice, and be a champion of compassion.
