Lord, we thank you for the essential workers, everyone who knew the risks but walked in obedience day in and day out to serve the people God. We thank you, we see your hand in it all God. 
We thank you for the work of the church Universal. Lord, the people who say I see the work that needs to be done so I combat my fear for faith God. I move when you tell me to Jesus, and if you say it, you will shall and will be done. Oh God, we’re thankful.
