Thanksgiving week... How being thankful changes us!

Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike talks about gratitude and how Scripture consistently pairs thanksgiving with God’s call to prayer. Drawing from five powerful passages (1 Thessalonians 5:16–18; Colossians 3:15–16; Colossians 4:2; John 15:4–5; Philippians 4:6–7), we see that whether we are walking through challenging seasons or celebrating great moments, God invites us to give thanks in all circumstances. Mike shares three ways gratitude shapes us: it fixes our eyes on God’s sovereign character, it humbles us by reminding us we don’t earn our blessings, and it lifts our vision beyond our present circumstances so we can celebrate God’s goodness even in difficulty. He closes with a challenge—to thank God today for the countless blessings that are simply a taste of His unearned goodness in our lives.
