“We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren” (2 Thessalonians 1:3).
In our latest prayer letter, (which can be read in the About Me, Prayer Letter section of www.michaelpeck.org), I used this verse to share with our supporters how Karen and I view them. As commissioned supported missionaries, Karen and I wrote to our partners once again and thanked them for standing with us and making our ministry possible. So many of my resources can be freely offered because very dear and generous people make it possible. I wonder who the individuals were at Thessalonica that helped the Apostle Paul and made him thankful. He wrote of their growing faith and their abounding love for each other. Here’s the question for today. I must ask myself, “Am I living in such a way that Paul could be thankful for my faith and love?” How about you?
For today: When folks think of us, are they bound to give thanks?
