Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read out of Colossians 4:2 which says "Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving."

"Tomorrow isn’t promised we know that. Yesterday is no longer here, so why do we look to the future and overlook the present?

 

It’s the hope that things will be better. It’s the lie that what we are looking for (happiness, prosperity, love, etc.) can only be found in the future and not in the presence.

 

If we aren’t careful we can spend our entire life hoping for a better tomorrow and before you know it your life will flash before your eyes.

 

I think if we hold onto this verse, it can help us stay present today. Be steadfast in prayer and while you pray, give thanks. Show your gratitude. Gratitude is what will open your eyes to the gifts all around you.

 

So as you go about your day, list out 5 things you are grateful for and spend time praying, worshiping, and talking to God. Give Him thanks for the things you have and the people you surround yourself with. "
