Finding Grace in Every Verse: The Biblical Essence of Gratitude, Blessings, and Thankfulness
<p>Amid life’s ever-changing landscape, where days can shift from radiant sunrises to stormy nights, the Word of God remains a constant light source.</p>
<p>Every page, verse, and phrase in the Bible is a testament to His eternal love and a reminder to live with a heart brimming with gratitude. After all, the essence of thankfulness isn’t just reserved for moments of overt blessings but can be found even in life’s subtlest whispers.</p>
<p>The Bible reminds us more than 365 times to release our worries and to “Cast your cares on the LORD, and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken” (Psalm 55:22).</p>
<p>What exactly is a “care”’? A ‘care’ refers to any overwhelming weight or concern that distracts us and shifts our focus away from God. However, by reflecting on the blessings in our lives, recalling God’s past deeds, and holding onto His promises for the future, we can realign our focus squarely on the majestic presence of God.</p>
<p>I am a big proponent of counting blessings; for the past 16 years, I have written a gratitude list as part of my daily routine. I have added daily Bible time to read through topics or entire books. I am in the Gospel of John right now with the help of a local <a href="https://www.bsfinternational.org/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Bible Study Fellowship</a> class.</p>
