Jesus Only: Part TwoSample

Week 7, Day 7 - Saturday - Review/Catch-up Day

Thankful Reflection on Your Week

Five times in Colossians, Paul mentions being thankful:

“We always pray for you, and we give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Col. 1:3)

“May you be filled with joy, always thanking the Father.” (Col. 1:12) 

“Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.” (Col. 2:7)

“And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.” (Col. 3:15)

“Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart.” (Col. 4:2)

Note how a spirit of thankfulness is always part of the relationship we share and a primary part of our interaction with Abba/Father.  

Reflect over this past week and think of at least 5 things you are thankful for. Write them down. Say them out loud. Share them with friends.  

Express your thankfulness for these things with God.
