“We always thank God for all of you and continually mention you in our prayers. We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-3

Dear Jesus, Thank you for sending your Holy Spirit to work faith in my family and me and how you move us by that same Spirit to let love lead us in the way we treat each other. Help us to endure in the many temptations from outside our family and from within our own fallible hearts. Give us good solid conflict resolution skills and the courage to use them faithfully. Make us live in grace and pursue peace. Amen.

Fellow believers driven by divine love are a special gift from God.
