What Paul Is Grateful for #1
For the next few days we'll be looking at the things that Paul is specifically grateful for. (We've already seen that he's grateful for his various congregations.)
In his letter to the church in Rome, Paul describes his struggle with his sinful nature. Most of chapter 7 is about this battle; there are good things that he wants to do, but somehow never gets to actually doing them. There are temptations he wants to resist, but ends up doing exactly what he didn't want to do.
Does this sound familiar???
No matter how hard we try, we keep on stumbling over our weaknesses. We keep falling into temptation and we keep missing the great opportunities we get to do it right.
Paul is desperate to be liberated from this endless cycle: "Who will rescue me from this body of death?"
The Good News is that there is a Rescuer.
His name is Jesus.
Jesus broke the chains of sin and death and sends us His Holy Spirit who will set us free from from sin and death.
Paul is thank-full; we don't have to struggle alone. We have been rescued. God places His Spirit in us. We can overcome our brokenness.
Read these powerful verses and bring your thanks to God, too.

This plan deals with Thanks-giving. I was tempted to call the series "An Attitude of Gratitude" but there is something about the idea of Giving Thanks that appeals to me. Gratitude and Thankfulness are not limited to emotions that we experience from time to time, but are choices we make and gifts that we give.
