It’s easy to be thankful when life feels good — but real gratitude shows up in every season. In this heartfelt episode of Legacy Life with the Lacefields, Megan Lacefield invites you to reframe how you see gratitude, not as a date on the calendar, but as a daily practice that transforms everything.

Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 5:18 — “Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” — Megan unpacks how thankfulness softens your heart, deepens your faith, and strengthens your relationships. She shares real stories of finding gratitude through life’s highs and lows, marriage, parenting, and leadership, reminding us that grace recognized is gratitude expressed.

Whether you’re walking through joy or hardship, this conversation will help you cultivate a spirit of thanksgiving that overflows into your family, work, and daily life.

You’ll hear:

• How gratitude shifts your focus from pressure to peace
• Practical ways to practice gratitude in marriage, parenting, and friendship
• Why thankfulness in hard seasons leads to spiritual growth
• The link between grace, joy, and lasting gratitude
• How gratitude becomes the foundation of your legacy
• Simple ways to give grace back to God through daily praise and reflection

 Scriptures shared:
1 Thessalonians 5:18 — Give thanks in all circumstances.
Psalm 100:4 — Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise.
Ephesians 5:20 — Always give thanks to God the Father for everything.
Colossians 3:17 — Whatever you do, do it in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks.

Legacy Takeaway:
Gratitude doesn’t change your circumstances — it changes you. When we give thanks in all things, we open the door for peace, joy, and God’s presence to fill our lives. Gratitude is how we live our legacy one day, one moment, one “thank you” at a time.

Conversation Starter:
Ask yourself: What am I grateful for today — and how can I give grace back to God for it?
