“I thank my God every time I remember you.” – Philippians 1:3
The Gift of People in Our Lives
Life is a journey, and along the way, God places special people who bring joy, encouragement, and strength. Some lift us when we are weary, others guide us when we are lost, and some simply walk beside us through every season. These people are a reflection of God’s love, a reminder that we are never alone.
Gratitude for Those Who Make a Difference
Take a moment to reflect on those who have impacted your life—the ones who prayed for you, supported you, and believed in you. Their kindness and presence are gifts from God. When Paul wrote this verse, he was expressing deep gratitude for those who had stood by him. Let us also be intentional in thanking God for the people who have been a blessing to us.
Be the Reason Someone Thanks God
Just as we have been blessed by others, we are also called to be a blessing. Your words, actions, and kindness can touch someone’s life in ways you may never fully know. Be the person who brings hope, encouragement, and love. Live in such a way that when others think of you, they thank God for your presence in their lives.
A Call to Action
Gratitude is not just something we feel—it’s something we express. Take a moment today to reach out to someone who has been a blessing to you. A simple message, a call, or a prayer of thanks can mean more than you realize. And as you do, ask God to use you to be that same kind of blessing to someone else.
PRAYER:
Lord, thank You for the people You have placed in my life—those who have encouraged me, supported me, and shown me Your love. Help me to never take them for granted, but to always be thankful. And Lord, may my life also be a source of joy and encouragement to others, that they too may thank You when they remember me. In Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
Encouragement for Today:
Every person you meet is an opportunity to share God’s love. Be the kind of person who leaves others feeling encouraged, strengthened, and grateful. Your kindness, no matter how small, can make a lasting impact.
Good morning to you all. May your Friday be filled with gratitude and opportunities to be a blessing! ✨
