The reading changes at midnight Central Time, and it stays the same all day.

Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

2 Corinthians 9:15King James Version

Plain English

Paul says thanks be to God for his "unspeakable gift," and unto means to, while unspeakable means a gift too great for words. Words run out before the gift does. That gift is Jesus and the grace God gives in him, so thanks is the right answer when a description falls short.

Devotional

Someone places a gift in your hands so fitting that a plain thank you feels too small, and you stand there quiet. Paul gives thanks to God for a gift too great for words, and that gift is Jesus. A simple thank you is still the right thing to offer.
