Read 2 Thessalonians 1–3.
May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.
2 Thessalonians 2:16–17
Dear God,
In seasons of busyness and in this chaotic world, I thank you for this blessing. “Strengthen me in every good deed and word.” Help me to slow down and remember you, your love, your life, and your death. Help me to incorporate you in every good deed, every gift I give, and every word that I speak. Help me to offer hope and encouragement to all I encounter today. Help me to offer strength and grace to all in need. Help me to quiet my heart and mind and receive this blessing from you. Fill me up, Lord. You are all I need.
I love you, Papa.
