Do you enjoy the good things God has given you, or do you often struggle with wanting something “better”?
The best antidote to discontentment is gratitude. Even when we feel disappointed by circumstances, we can thank God for what we have in Christ.
Through Him, we have been given the awesome opportunity to have an intimate relationship with our Creator. We are indwelt by the Holy Spirit. We can experience His presence moment by moment and enjoy spiritual gifts that enable us to fulfill His will.
You and I were chosen to be God’s children before the foundation of the world. We are eternally secure—nothing can separate us from His unconditional love. God promises to meet every one of our needs. We even have His promise that death is not the end—we will live forever with Him in a perfect heavenly home.
My prayer is that you will meditate on these truths. Let them stimulate your heart to gratitude for all the Father has given you.
