    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jan 24, 2014
     | 5,402 views

    The apostle Paul always gives thanks in his prayers and so thanksgiving needs to be a major part of our prayers. Jesus did it, and so did Paul, and look at their ministries, and the word “thanks” used here comes from the Greek word “Eucharist”.
