“In everything”



Hello Friend!

Giving thanks in everything means that even when things are not looking good, you should still be thankful. Imagine a narrative of someone who just lost everything they had within the twinkling of an eye; with all of the turmoil going on in their head, do you think it will be easy to be thankful at that point?


We may be going through a difficult time in our lives, but cultivating a habit of gratitude can make things a lot easier. Here is how:


Here is how:



  • Remember that God cares for you so much and His thoughts towards you are good. Read Jeremiah 29:11.


  • Look deep into your life, there are many thousands of blessings you never recognized. Read Psalms 77:11-12.


  • Be mindful that things will get better and shift your focus away from the hurts, guilts, and things that went wrong. Read John 14:27.


  • Make thanksgiving a habit. Take some time out of each day to thank God, worship Him and glorify Him for how faithful He is. Read Psalms 106:1.


  • Trust God’s plan, because His ways are not our ways. Read Proverbs 16:3.


  • Meditate on the word of God daily and seek to know Him more. Knowing God more makes our faith in him even stronger. Read Joshua 1:8.

  • Even when nothing makes sense,  remember God knows the beginning and the end. Read Isaiah 46:9-10.


Take away

If you ever feel discouraged, close your eyes and look back at how far you’ve come. Remember how God has never left you, remember the grace that brought you thus far.

Giving Thanks in Everything

Sometimes life feels like it’s falling apart — plans fail, losses come unexpectedly, and hope seems distant. Think of a time when things weren’t going the way you wanted; with all the emotions rushing through your mind, gratitude was probably the last thing you wanted to express. Yet, this is exactly where true thanksgiving begins — not when life is perfect, but when we trust that God is still good, even when things don’t seem that way. God’s Word encourages us to give thanks in all circumstances because He cares deeply for us, and His thoughts toward us are always good (Jeremiah 29:11). Even when things seem unclear, His plans are still for our peace and not for our destruction. Sometimes, we need to pause and look back at our lives to see the countless blessings we’ve overlooked. The psalmist reminds us to remember the deeds of the Lord and meditate on His works (Psalm 77:11–12). As we walk through tough seasons, it’s important to shift our focus away from negativity and toward the...

When obedience seems hard

Have you ever thought about what you would do if you were in Abraham’s position? God asked him to sacrifice his only son, Isaac — the son he had waited for all his life. Imagine the thoughts that must have run through his mind as he walked toward that mountain, carrying wood and fire but no explanation. Yet, Abraham obeyed. He trusted that even in this impossible command, God had a purpose. His faith reminds us that true obedience sometimes means surrendering what we value most. Sometimes, God asks us to let go of something dear — a dream, a relationship, or even a habit — and our first instinct is to resist. We grumble, argue, or try to reason it out because obedience can feel costly. But obedience, even when hard, is proof of our trust in God. Jesus Himself obeyed the Father even unto death (Philippians 2:8), and that obedience brought salvation to the whole world. The Bible makes it clear that disobedience leads to pain and loss. Saul lost his throne because he disobeyed God’s instr...

Truly humble?

“True humility and fear of the Lord lead to riches, honor, and long life.” Proverbs 22 : 4 NLT As a Christian, have you ever been convicted in your heart that you were acting out of pride? Sometimes pride creeps in unnoticed—especially when we get carried away with church activities or even personal achievements. Before we realize it, we may start thinking we are the center of attraction instead of giving God the glory. Pride is subtle but dangerous, and if we are not careful, our service to God can become more about ourselves than Him. May we never be deprived of God’s blessings because of pride. True humility begins with total reverence for God—acknowledging Him for who He is and recognizing that everything we have comes from Him. Scripture reminds us in James 4:6 that, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” Humility is not weakness; it is strength under God’s control. It is the heart that bows before God, knowing He alone is our source. The fear of the Lord goe...
