FAITH CONNECTION FOR TODAY
We are in the season of Thanksgiving, what wonderful service we had this past Sunday, the Worship, Word and FOOD!
Thank you to all who came and fellowship with us!
I wanted to share on the importance of having gratitude in our faith.
Gratitude is at the heart of Christian life. It's the humble acknowledgment of the blessings we receive daily—both big and small. The Bible repeatedly advises us to express thanksgiving in every circumstance, echoing the innate connection between gratitude, faith, and personal growth.
Gratitude is recognizing the good in our lives and acknowledging that this goodness is a gift. It’s about acknowledging God's enduring love and mercy. It’s about seeing God’s hand in everything, whether a beautiful sunrise, a job promotion, or even a tough life challenge.
So faith and gratitude bring us great benefits.
Gratitude is both a practice instructed of us in the Bible and also a scientifically proven method to enhance our mental health and overall well being.
We learn in Psalm 107:1 to, “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever.”
But it’s also important to practice gratitude regardless of whether things are going our way or not. As we learn in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
Regularly acknowledging and appreciating the good things in our lives can lead to a multitude of benefits:
What are those benefits?
Join me in the next few post as we learn the benefits of making FAITH CONNECTION with a heart of gratitude.
