Some people are blessings. It doesn't matter if we talk to them over the phone, receive a nice email, get a letter in the mail, or see them in person. We thank God for them every time we think about them. So let's do what Paul did and let them know that they give us reasons to thank God.
Prayer
Thank you, loving LORD, for [the names of people who bless my life]. They have made my life better in so many ways, so I'm asking You to bless their lives with Your grace, power, and Spirit. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
