Choosing An Attitude of Gratitude (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

For the believer, the attitude of gratitude is not about having it all together. It is about remembering God holds you when you do not have it all together. Gratitude does not ignore reality. It reframes it. It lets you see your life not as a collection of problems to solve, but as a story held by a God who is good and whose love does not run out. Jesus healed ten men of leprosy, but only one returned to thank Him, showing how rare and vital true gratitude is (Luke 17:11-19). Choose gratitude! Be encouraged!
