Gratitude isn’t always easy—especially when life feels overwhelming, disappointing, or rushed. But Scripture shows us that giving thanks is more than a reaction to good things; it’s a discipline that shapes our faith and opens our eyes to God's goodness. 📖 “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:18 In today’s prayer and reflection, we ask God to help us develop hearts that notice His faithfulness—not just when life is good, but also in the hard, quiet, and ordinary moments. A grateful heart doesn’t ignore pain—it surrenders it, trusting that God is still working in and through it. Let gratitude reframe your perspective and renew your spirit.
