Psalm 116:10-19

Psalm 116:10-19
Contemporary English Version (CEV)

  What should we give?  What would you give a friend who saved your life?  What can you give a parent who sacrificed much for you to excel?  What would you give a doctor who interceded and gave you a second chance?
  There are things we receive for which 'thank you' seems to fall short.  The gift of grace is certainly one of those gifts.  We can never adequately thank God for what has been given to us.
  All we can do is live in such a way that honors the gift and the giver.  We can choose to love others as we have been loved, and in so doing we express our gratitude to God for his goodness.

May we love selflessly, and in so doing, proclaim the name of Christ
