Gratitude at the Threshold
3 min read · Gratitude
Psalm 100:4
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him, and bless his name.
The psalm pictures gratitude as the way we enter God's presence. Thanksgiving does not require calling every circumstance good. It begins by noticing that goodness still reaches us within an imperfect day. Name one gift you almost overlooked: a person, a meal, a breath, a small mercy. Let thanks become attention before it becomes a feeling.
Today’s prayer
Generous God, open my eyes to gifts I hurry past. Receive my thanks and shape me into a person who notices grace. Amen.
