From Paul's thanksgiving and prayer
Colossians 1:9-14
So we have not stopped praying for you since we first heard about you. We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding. Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and your lives will produce every kind of good fruit. All the while, you will grow as you learn to know God better and better.
We also pray that you will be strengthened with all his glorious power so you have all the endurance and patience you need. May you be filled with joy, always thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light. For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness asnd transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son, who purchased our freedom and forgave our sins.
Paul wrote this letter to the Colossians to show them how to live as beleivers knowing they wouldn't know how to do it on their own. this to helps us as beleivers now day also!
Its amazing to me that as I feed my soul with Gods greatness I will live a better life (I am not saying life is EASIER then a non-believer but it is BETTER).
If you take the time to be thankful for all the things that happen for example rain, sun, the car starting, the food on your table, the smile someone just gave you...etc. you will feel more blessed then always living in the nagaitve things for example rain, being to hot, the car not starting, the lack of thing, the smile someone didn't give.
Now please tell me what you think about todays word!
