“may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,” Ephesians‬ ‭3:18‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This past Sunday our church choir sang a song called, Healer of my heart. The lyrics that grabbed my attention, were “Lead me to the deepest well”. As I sat in my usual balcony seat, I took this picture, where the cross looks deep. The pastor talked a lot about being Thankful, even when going through difficult things. 2022 has not been the easiest year for us but looking back we have a lot to be thankful for. In the middle of difficulty, God would always lead us back to Him.

This verse from Ephesians talks about that deep love for God. In the song, Your Love Is Strong by Cory Asbury, we should rejoice because God has chosen each of us. On this Thankful Thursday as we sit with God, let’s remember to thank him for the deep love that not only rescues us but chooses us daily. In the difficult times, ask God to open our hearts to find something to be thankful for. I know one thing, our family’s love has grown stronger as a result of 2022. I am so thankful for the deep love, full of grace that God has and continues to freely give. Let’s pray!

Lord, thank you for the deep love, full of grace that you freely give. Lead us to your deepest well. Open our hearts to be thankful in all circumstances. May we all feel your strong love and rejoice for choosing us. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
