Saturday, Nov. 8 – A Song of Gratitude

Scripture: “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts… and be thankful.” — Colossians 3:15

Reflection:
Gratitude is the final layer in Paul’s wardrobe of grace. It’s what keeps the whole outfit together day after day. Thankful people see differently—they notice God’s fingerprints in ordinary life.

Gratitude shifts our focus from what’s missing to what’s given. It opens our hearts to joy and our hands to generosity. That’s why Paul ends this passage with thanksgiving—it’s both the result and the fuel of a compassionate life.

Today, let gratitude be your song. Even when life feels heavy, find one note of praise and sing it.

Action Step:
Make a list of three things you’re thankful for and share one with someone else. Gratitude multiplies when it’s shared.

Prayer:
Gracious God, tune my heart to gratitude. Let thankfulness lead my words, my choices, and my love. Amen.
