When success stacks up, it’s tempting to believe we built it alone. Today we slow down and tell a different story—one rooted in Deuteronomy 8:17–18 and the quiet conviction that God gives the power to produce. We explore how gratitude becomes a daily guardrail against pride, how it reframes our wins without diminishing hard work, and how a simple five‑minute practice can reset the heart before ambition sets the agenda.
I share a short reading from the New Living Translation and unpack the tension between “I did this” and “God did this for me.” We talk about the hidden inputs behind every visible outcome—timing you didn’t control, mentors you didn’t invent, health you didn’t engineer—and why naming them out loud shifts your internal story from entitlement to worship. You’ll hear a brief, honest prayer for humility, plus a concrete way to start: thank God for specific abilities, opportunities, and resources, and say that none of it would be possible without Him.
If you’ve felt the pressure to keep proving yourself, this reflection offers relief and a path back to peace. Gratitude doesn’t make you passive; it makes you accurate. It frees you to steward influence without clinging, to share credit without fear, and to hold both success and setback under the same generous hand. Listen, pray with me, and try the five‑minute gratitude reset today. If it helps, share this episode with a friend, subscribe for more daily wisdom, and leave a quick review so others can find it too.
