Devotional image for gratitude and daily prayer

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

1 Thessalonians 5:18

Thankfulness is not denial. It is a way of looking at life with enough faith to notice grace even while needs remain.

Scripture calls us to give thanks in everything, not because everything is easy, but because God remains present and good.

Write down one mercy today. Let it become a doorway back into prayer.
