Showing Thanks

로마서(Rom) 16장

4. 그들은 내 목숨을 위하여 자기들의 목까지도 내놓았나니 나뿐 아니라 이방인의 모든 교회도 그들에게 감사하느니라

4. They risked their lives for me. Not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are grateful to them.


Showing thanks to anyone who is working or worked for churches is a very basic and essential attitude, and the Apostle Paul seems to be a role model of it. Although I have worked for churches until now without any expectation of thanks by any pastors or even sisters and brothers, I believe that this kind of thanks, encouragement, and greeting each other is very important and God also wants us to do it.


I remind one deaconess who has shown me many thanks about what I did for her whenever we talk on the phone. It was a little care and love for her, but she is most likely to remember it, because she is humbling herself. In reality, I feel like being loved by her more than I did and the reason is that she remembers it and shows thanks to me with greetings.


Then, to whom should I show my personsl thanks and greetings?
