June 12

Read 1 Cor. 16:15; 2 Cor. 9:12-13; Jas. 3:13; Eph. 6:7

Lord, I lift up the people who work behind the scenes at our church. Thank You for our  nursery workers, the deacons of the month who empty the trash, clean up who lock up. For those women that come and help with our  funerals, weddings and fellowship times. They make sure that everything is just right for those precious moments in people’s lives. We give thanks today for those who work in our garden, that make sure the grounds are beautiful when we come to praise our Savior.  Bless all of them for the obedience and generosity they have displayed—may You receive praise as a result! Keep them in an attitude of humility that comes from wisdom and wholehearted service to You rather than to be noticed by others.
