How do you start your day: with a list of complaints, or a heart full of thanks?
It is easy to look around at our current situation and spot everything that is going wrong. But I have found that our outlook on life has less to do with our circumstances and more to do with our choices. Do you really believe God is at work in your life right now, even in the messy parts?
In this encouraging video, “Attitude of Gratitude,” we explore the powerful connection between our faith and our attitude. Gratitude isn’t just a warm feeling; it is a spiritual discipline. It is the deliberate choice to embrace each day believing that God is present and active, regardless of what the headlines—or our bank accounts—might say.
In this call to a higher perspective, we learn:
- The Choice of Attitude: Understanding that while we cannot control what happens to us, we can absolutely control how we respond.
- Seeing God at Work: How a thankful heart opens our eyes to God’s activity in the mundane and the difficult.
- Faith in Action: Realizing that complaining is often a symptom of doubt, while gratitude is the language of faith.
My friend, you can’t always change your situation, but you can change your focus. Let’s choose to be grateful today.
