+In turning our eyes to Jesus on Thanksgiving, we are able to take our white-knuckle grip off our problems.
+This is not about faking it, but acknowledging and remembering God in the midst of the hard.
+Thanksgiving turns our eyes from our situation to our Saviour, from our overwhelming problems to His overwhelming love.
+We don’t give thanks because the situation merits it. We give thanks because of Who He is in the midst of our situation.
+We give thanks for what He may be doing in and through us when those unbearable trials descend on us.
+We can hold both our anxiousness and thanksgiving together. His Word tells us to do just that. ๐
๐ Father God, I acknowledge today that I often tell myself a solely negative story, and I forget Your hand of blessing in my life.
+I tend to focus so exclusively on my problems that I overlook how You led me through storms in the past.
+Lord, help today as I speak to You about my trials to also spend time on thanksgiving.
+Because even in the wilderness and the weariness, You are with me and Your grace is sufficient.
+I thank You today because You promise to work all things out for my good and Your glory. In Jesus’ name. Amen. ๐☝️๐ช๐ป❣️
