My Devotional Journal: Today's Our Daily Bread author, James Banks … AT THIS LINK … tells how his fellow church members, when they were building a new church building, took time to write their favorite paise passages and Bible verses of thankfulness on the wall studs. And they did this to remember all the goodness and mercy of God as the author’s fellow church members permanently remembered and praised God for His goodness to His chosen disciples by sharing and writing Go’s word back to God, in a special hidden, but permanent, way.
And likewise, in taking in today’s ODB entry and the powerful gratitude from the linked song, I am sharing a few verses from God’s word above to remember and honor what God has done, … and will always do, … to share His unchanging covenant grace with those of us who love Him and benefit from His immutable love and mercy.
Do you remember and share Your gratitude and praise today for our God’s unchanging grace, mercy, and love? I pray you join me to share our praise to our God for His goodness … today and always!!
My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for ALWAYS being there to bring Your love and mercy into my life.
My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray that all reading here will join me, … to praise You, Lord, for Your unchanging and always available provision of mercy and grace. … Amen .
