Welcome to the June Edition of the 2013 Christ United Methodist Church Women’s Ministry Daily Devotional. God asked us to share our stories of finding Him through grateful hearts, which inspired us to put together this “Living a Life of Gratitude” daily devotional. Since January 1^st, we have been guided to live our lives learning how to find something to be grateful to God for each day. Some days we have been blessed and inspired by stories from many of the faithful women in our congregation, other days the entry has simply been a scripture about being grateful. We have also had days that the devotion was a creative idea one of our members has shared to help them be thankful or a book recommendation that has motivated them. Other days the words from well-known authors and saints as well as hymns have blessed and guided us.

Each day this month we hope you will begin to look forward to reading the entries as an addition to your faith journey and that it will inspire you to find endless ways of seeing just how good the Lord really is and how much He loves each one of us.

If you are just beginning this journey of thankfulness and wish you could read some of the back entries from January, February, March, April and May you are in luck. There are no more printed versions of the devotionals, but you can see all the entries when you visit our “Living a Life of Gratitude Daily Devotional” blog.
