Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the prayers You recorded for us in Your Word. Thank You for examples of faithful servants who lived love as You commanded. Please help us to learn from the examples we have seen. I pray that our faith and love will “deepen our understanding of every blessing that belongs to us in Christ.” We know You give blessings, but I wonder if we sometimes miss them. May others be encouraged by the love we show to one another.

I pray this in Jesus’ name.

God is so good.
