​Week 35, Day 1
August 29, 2022
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4
 
“All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.” (2 Corinthians 4:15)
 
“as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many.” (2 Corinthians 1:11)
 
What is our response to people when they do us a significant favor?
 
I hope that our response is gratitude. At the very least, we ought to tell people “Thank you” when they do something kind or in our favor.
 
What is our response to God for His grace?
 
Paul contends in Romans that it isn’t to go on sinning so grace may increase. Rather, we live transformed and sacrificial lives. For Paul in Corinth, he is encouraging generosity and gratitude as response to the kindness of God. It is a worthwhile question to answer rand consider today, how do I respond to God’s favor and grace? He has loved me and rescued me, how shall I respond?
 
Take time to express gratitude to God!
 
May God be glorified!
