Too Wonderful for Words!

The verse for 9/15 is from 2 Corinthians 9:15, "Thank God for His Son - a gift too wonderful for words!"  NLT

In context, this verse is the conclusion of a chapter wherein the Apostle Paul is writing to the Corinthians about how the grace of God inspires generosity in people who are godly.  His words remind me that a harvest of good results from trusting God and being authentic in our faith.  When we are obedient to God, we are generous in love and deeds to others and we glorify God in the process.  In essence, we become examples of the Good News and love of Jesus Christ when we are sensitive to the needs of others. 

Paul knew that Jesus and His grace is the gift that keeps on giving.  That inspires me to follow Him with passion and authenticity.  He is undoubtedly too wonderful for words!
