A Thankful Heart
Gratitude & Praise
Scripture
“In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”
— 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (KJV)
Reflection
Gratitude is a powerful spiritual discipline. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 calls us into it: "In every thing give thanks: for this…" A thankful heart sees rightly. It notices the small mercies that an anxious heart misses. Today, before you ask the Lord for anything, take a few moments to thank Him — for breath, for grace, for the people around you, for the steadiness of His love. Gratitude turns the soul toward the Giver.
Prayer
Father, thank You. For breath, for grace, for everything. Let gratitude shape my heart today. Amen.
