“Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift!” (2 Corinthians 9:15)
Father, we thank You for sending the gift of Your Son Jesus to save all people from their sin. We thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit to dwell in every believer. We thank You for the gift of prayer to communicate with You. We thank You for the gift of hope in Your promises to return and hope in the resurrection. We thank You for the spiritual blessings in Christ in the heavenly realms. We thank You for Your Story to tell. We thank You for our own testimony to share. All good gifts coming from You Father.
On behalf of Team Expansion team members, far away from their own kith and kin over the holidays, thank You for the gift of friends and neighbors who help to fill the void of missing loved ones. Thank You for people You have placed in the lives of Your servants to love them like their own.
