Psalm 107: 1

“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; His love endures forever.”

Often my private prayers include the phrase “Your love endures forever”.  Apparently, it is a phrase that is in my heart because I say it a lot.  One night when unable to return to sleep, I started thinking of all the ways my Lord has saved me from harm or calamity.  Starting from earliest memories….being butted my goats did not give me serious harm….and then on, being irresponsible once or twice while a teenager.  You understand.  Anyway, thanks be to God, I am here at my computer!  His love endures forever. 

There was a devotional I read a few weeks ago that had the idea of being thankful for 5 things every week.  I usually start daily prayers with being grateful to God.  This article suggested looking at a week.  I suppose this is a good way to be, you could be thankful for the progress of a project at work or the healing of someone you had prayed for.  So I suggest to you, this week look back and find five things in your life to be grateful for.  “His love endures forever.”

Please know that the Lord of Grace Prayer team continue to pray over all prayer petitions sent our way, including the requests entered in the prayer journal in the Narthex.  The Team will also continue to offer individual prayer times after each worship service on the 4th Sunday of each month.  We strongly believe in the power of prayer and that a continual connection with our God will keep us all closer to Him.  Remember, God can bring the peace you seek.  Seek Him in prayer.
