We want you to CONNECT with God through His Word, Prayer, & Worship.

Today, call out to Him in prayer. Ask Him to "open your eyes" as you read through the scripture.

As you observe the scripture, we encourage you to take notes.

Notice the emotions, reasons, and context. Make sure to note what God wants you to know or do after reading the scripture.

Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;

worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness.

- Psalm 29:2

Imagine you're in a courtroom, and someone is questioning God's character. They're pointing to your struggles, your unanswered prayers, your disappointments as evidence that God isn't good or faithful. What would your testimony be? Gratitude is essentially our public testimony about who God is. When we give thanks, we're standing up in that courtroom of life and declaring, "I agree with God about His character." We're saying that despite what we see or feel, God is still loving, wise, and trustworthy. This kind of agreement isn't always easy. When you're facing financial stress, relationship problems, or health concerns, thanking God can feel counterintuitive. But this is precisely when our gratitude becomes most powerful—not because we're thankful for the difficulty, but because we're thankful for who God is in the midst of it. Consider how this changes everything. Instead of allowing circumstances to define God's character, we allow God's character to define our response to circumstances. We stop asking, "Why is this happening?" and start declaring, "God, I know You are good, and I trust You in this." Your gratitude today isn't just about feeling better—it's about taking a stand for truth. It's about agreeing with heaven's perspective when earth's perspective tries to discourage you.

Explore & examine the areas of your life that God needs to come under the truth. Take a moment to commit & surrender these areas in prayer.

After, tell and share with others what God is teaching you! Try this:

*Share your encouraging takeaways with others on your social media, or share your story with us. We want to celebrate with you!

I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.

-Psalm 119:11
