An attitude of gratitude will help you realise and reflect on God’s goodness throughout the year. Pause and acknowledge the countless ways He has provided, guided, and blessed us. As the year draws to a close, reviewing what God has done deepens our faith and fills our hearts with thanksgiving and joy.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 says, “Thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live” (MSG). This reminds us that gratitude should be a constant posture, recognising His hand in joyful and challenging moments.
Have you reflected on this year’s blessings? Plan to thank God for His faithfulness and carry a heart of gratitude into the year ahead. Gratitude paves the way for a hopeful and joyful journey with Him. When you see what God did in the past year, your faith will build for the coming year.
