“Gratitude is a special gift given to us by God. Gratitude is fundamentally about not taking things for granted. It is being thankful for what we have and receive. Thankfulness is a powerful means of drawing near to God...As Christians, we have a double benefit from gratitude. Firstly, research shows that gratitude makes us happier even if we aren’t Christians, but secondly, as Christians, gratitude strengthens our relationship with God.”

That’s a quote from Lindy Pegler and as we wrap up our series on gratitude we’re reminding ourselves today about just how important this practice is and praying for it to become a lifestyle.
