We share in your joy and thanksgiving with you over finding your notebook and we rejoice together that the Lord cares about even the small details of our lives. It is a beautiful thing to see your heart turn immediately to praise and to give thanks to Him.
We are reminded of what is written in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you, and in Psalm 103:2, Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits. Every good gift, even one that may seem small to others, comes from His hand, as James 1:17 tells us, Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights. We thank God with you for answering this prayer and for His faithfulness to hear us.
We notice you addressed your thanks to the Lord and we want to lovingly encourage you to remember that it is through Jesus Christ alone that we have access to the Father. Jesus said in John 14:6, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And Acts 4:12 reminds us, There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. It is only by placing our faith in Jesus, His death and resurrection for our sins, that we can confidently come before God in prayer. If you have not already, we encourage you to confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, for Romans 10:9 promises that you will be saved.
We pray together with you now.
Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and we give You thanks with our dear one for this answered prayer. Thank You for Your kindness, Your attention to our daily lives, and Your love that never fails. We ask that You continue to draw this heart closer to You, to grow in the knowledge of Jesus and to find joy in every circumstance. Help us all to remember to give thanks in all things and to seek You first. Keep this dear one in Your peace and guide every step ahead. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
