Gratitude isn’t just a feeling—it’s a belief and a way of life. While science tells us gratitude improves our mental and physical health, the Bible shows us it transforms our hearts. Even in tough times, God is working all things toward something good and beautiful.
Listen to this Mini-Quiet Time as we dive into Scripture to discover how to live with gratitude, no matter what life throws our way. Let’s learn to see every moment—even the hard ones—as a chance to be thankful.
