DAILY?READINGS: Exodus 16; Psalm 52-54; Acts 9:1-31

I thank my God upon every remembrance of you. Philippians 1:3

 

Thankfulness should be characteristic of the Christian life. Those who have been redeemed and forgiven by the Lord’s precious blood ought to exhibit gratitude towards God and their fellow man. Furthermore, we ought to thank the Lord for our fellow saints. Paul especially appreciated their fellowship in the Gospel, which they expressed through their gifts, prayers, and preaching. Speaking about the believers to our Father before the throne of grace will increase our interest in and care for each other in everyday life. —Keith Keyser

Where all the saints of every clime shall meet,
And each with all, shall all the ransomed greet,
But oh, the height of bliss, our Lord, shall be,
To owe it all, and share it all, with Thee. —James G. Deck
