Winning in life from God’s perspective (Conclusion)

In the Bible, winning in life is not defined by worldly wealth, status, or power, but by the condition of your heart and your relationship with God. This brings the believer face to face with Gratefulness. Biblical gratefulness is a combination of contentment and praise. It results from being completely satisfied in God! It shifts your focus from what you lack to the abundance of God’s grace, protecting your heart from envy, greed, and anxiety. God’s will for you is “In everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
