When I pause to give thanks, it's more than a polite acknowledgment of blessings. It's a reminder that I'm not in control, that God is guiding my life. It's an everyday decision to let Jesus take the lead'to acknowledge His saving grace, His Spirit within me, and the promise of something beyond this world.
Gratitude keeps me grounded in this truth. It's a constant reminder that my story is part of a larger plan, that I'm here for a purpose beyond my own desires. In tough times, it's my anchor, helping me see beyond the hardships to the lessons and growth hidden within.
It doesn't erase my struggles, but it changes how I see them. Gratitude helps me trust that even in chaos, there's a deeper meaning unfolding'a meaning guided by a wisdom far greater than mine.
