Good evening brethren, I felt in my spirit that someone needed this word of exhortation, Not just the obvious ones… but the subtle ones we don’t always call out. The pressure to have it all figured out. The need for approval. The hustle that slowly replaces trust. The backup plans we cling to instead of faith. Sometimes it’s not that we stop believing in God we just start relying on other things more. This has been a personal check for me lately: What am I leaning on when things feel uncertain? What gets my first attention, my first trust, my first response? I’m learning that surrender isn’t weakness it’s alignment. So I’m praying this, and maybe you are too: Lord, let every other god fade away every distraction, every false source of security, every silent idol. What’s one thing you’ve had to consciously release or realign lately? Feel free and Let’s talk about it and I believe God will grant us a peaceful response at the end of it. Amen

A while back, I caught myself thanking God only after things worked out. But one season, nothing seemed to move. Prayers felt quiet. Progress felt slow. And honestly, I didn’t feel very, thankful. One day I decided to thank God anyway, not because everything was perfect, but because I realized He had already been faithful before and that hadn’t changed. Slowly, my perspective shifted. The situation didn’t change overnight, but my heart did. Peace came first. Clarity followed. Then momentum. Thanksgiving has a way of realigning us. It reminds us that even in waiting seasons, there’s still something to acknowledge, learn from, and grow through. Curious to hear from you fellow brother and sister in Christ, What’s something you’re grateful for right now, even if life isn’t exactly where you want it to be? Has gratitude ever changed your outlook in a tough season? Let’s share and encourage one another.
