Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples!
Psalm 105:1, ESV
We give thanks to God for what He has done, and in our gratitude we tell the world of His faithfulness and forgiveness.
And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
Galatians 6:9, ESV
God is omnipotent and omniscient, so we can trust that He knows what He is doing in and through us to change our world. We can work hard knowing He is faithful and capable of redeeming us and this world.

Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.
1 John 3:18, ESV
Words are important. Words save. Words are meaningless if they are not backed by truth and action, just like The Word becoming flesh to live and die for us.
Go and do likewise.
for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
Philippians 2:13, ESV
God works in us, most effectively and clearly when we find our identity first and foremost in Christ. If our identity is found in anything else, we go astray to be an example of His wrath, but as one who belongs to Christ, He does amazing things that bless others as examples of His love and grace.
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
Colossians 3:23-24, ESV
Jesus did everything to glorify His Father and draw others to a deeper knowledge of Him.
May we serve Christ in everything we do, and may we seek to draw others into His love and grace.
And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
Galatians 6:9, ESV
Our God did the ultimate good, by sacrificing Christ for us. Now, we have the Holy Spirit within us to empower us to do good works for His glory and help us make eternity that much better.
Therefore, encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.
1 Thessalonians 5:11, ESV
Let us die to selfishness, nailing it to the cross, and instead focus on strengthening our fellow believers through encouraging words and helpful works, always pointing each other to Christ.
