In Everything...

Give Thanks

November 2, 2022

Day 2 - An Attitude of Gratitude 30-Day Challenge: For the next 30 days, write down at least one thing that you are gratful for along with a specific action to return the kindness.

Some have said, "what doesn’t kill us will make us stronger". I think that may be true—when we see the tough stuff from the right perspective.

1 Thessalonians 5:18 reminds us of this, "in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 

There are many experiences we encounter in life that we might not be thankful for. God knew that would happen.

The Bible encourages us to be thankful “in” everything not necessarily “for” everything.

Regardless to what we're going through, there is someone who is going through worse.

When we complain that we don’t have the right shoes—someone doesn’t have any feet. When we're frustrated with our boss—someone is praying for a job.

So, on Day 2 of our “Attitude of Gratitude” challenge, AWOGI encourages you to give thanks “in” everything.
