DAILY?READINGS: Deut. 16; Song of Sol. 6:10 to 8:14; Luke 11:1-13
Giving thanks unto the Father, who hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light. Colossians 1:12
Jacob had no earthly right to his father’s blessing but it was God’s intention for him to have it (Gen. 27). How much more are we undeserving of God’s amazing grace? We are sinful and despicable compared to God’s perfection; yet He loves us, and desires for us to be His children. Today, give thanks to God that He has made a way for us to be “partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light”. —Danielle E.
Now thank we all our God, with heart and hands and voices,
Who wondrous things has done, in whom this world rejoices;
Who from our earliest days has blessed us on our way,
With countless gifts of love, and still is ours today.
—Martin Rinkart
