Christian Daily Prayer And Gratitude Journal
6 MONTHS OF DAILY PRAYER AND GRATITUDE: Strengthen your faith and deepen your relationship with God through daily prayer and gratitude as you incorporate Christian teachings into your daily life. The Daily Prayer and Gratitude Journal is a simple and effective tool to give thanks to the Lord, count your blessings and build positive habits through biblical affirmations.
One Thousand Gifts
How can you find joy in the midst of deadlines, debt, drama, and even the death of loved ones? What does the Christ-life really look like when your days are gritty, long, and sometimes even dark? How is God even here? “It is in the dark that God is passing by . . . our lives shake not because God has abandoned but the exact opposite. God is passing by. God is in the tremors. Dark is the holiest ground, the glory passing by. In the blackest, God is closest, at work, forging His perfect and right will. Though it is black and we can’t see and our world seems to be free-falling and we feel utterly alone, Christ is most present to us...” In One Thousand Gifts, Ann Voskamp invites you to discover a way of seeing that opens your eyes to ordinary amazing grace, a way of living that is fully alive, and a way of becoming present to God that brings deep and lasting joy. It's only in the expression of gratitude for the life we already have, we discover the life we've always wanted . . . a life we can take, give thanks for, and break for others. Come to feel and know the impossible right down in your bones: you are wildly loved by God.
Practicing Gratitude
Gratitude is a spiritual practice that helps you notice and appreciate God’s work in your day to day. In this plan you’ll learn 4 different techniques for making gratitude a part of your daily life.
Cultivating Gratitude
Gratitude, one of the most beautiful and freeing qualities available to us, is directly tied to our focus on God. Why don’t we all live in its privileges? In fact, it is sadly quite rare. These 8 lessons look at the beauty of gratitude; why it is so rare; how it is expressed, and how we can build on it.
Growing in Gratitude
We know that this time of year we ought to be grateful, but if we took an inventory of our heart, would we see a heart that is growing in gratitude or one that is grumbling, ungrateful, and perhaps even taking His very good gifts for granted? In this 4 day plan, we will remind ourselves why we truly can grow in gratitude, regardless of our circumstances.
Journaling Gratitude
While preparing for the holidays at the end of each year, it is easy to forget to practice gratitude intentionally. Grab your journal, color pencils, paints, art and craft supplies, or maybe even just a pen and a paper; and begin a meaningful 24-day journey this Advent of practicing gratitude through creative journaling. You can also ask a group of friends to join your gratitude journaling journey!
Attitude of Gratitude
In this 5-step plan, you will be encouraged to practice thankfulness in every situation every day.
5 Prayers of Gratitude
Prayer changes things. When I pray consistently to God something changes within me. And it can change you too. This 5-day devotional plan can help you form a habit of coming to God in prayer every day. I have taken scripture and reworded them into prayers of gratitude. I pray these prayers help you overcome negativity through applying the power of prayer and God's Word to your life.
