God calls us to have grateful hearts, to recognise the good things in life and to give thanks for them. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 say: “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
How can we learn to ‘rejoice always’ and ‘give thanks in all circumstances’? What does having a grateful heart really mean in practice? This week we dive into thinking about gratitude and how we can build up a foundation of gratitude in our lives and the way we need to rely on that foundation when we face difficult times.
I’ll find a way to praise You
From the bottom of my broken heart
‘Cause I think I’d rather strike a match than curse the dark
Yeah, I’ll find a way to thank You
Though the bitterness is real and hard
‘Cause I’d rather take a chance on hope than fall apart
Chorus:
Even if my daylight never dawns
Even if my breakthrough never comes
Even if I’ll fight to bring You praise
Even if my dreams fall to the ground
Even if I’m lost, I know I’m found
Even if my heart will somehow say
Hallelujah anyway
Rend Collective, Hallelujah Anyway
