Thank You, Lord ... for victory over death ... beginning here-and-now.

"Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Corinthians 15:57).

Towards the end of the great resurrection chapter, this verse proclaims Christ's victory over death - "Death is swallowed up in victory" (verse 54), there's a call to serve the Lord wholeheartedly, We are to serve Him with the firm conviction that "our labour is not in vain in the Lord" (verse 58). This victory is not achieved by us. by us. It is given to us by God. It comes to us "through our Lord Jesus Christ." What are we to say to this? What can we say? There's only one thing we can say - "Thank You, Lord."
