Hungry and Grateful at the Same Time | Monday Push

Hello,

It is good for workers to have an appetite; an empty stomach drives them on.

Proverbs 16:26 NLT

What are you hungry for right now—relief, peace, or maybe freedom?

With Thanksgiving coming up in the United States, so many families will gather in a circle and pray with gratitude. And it reminds me that you really can be grateful and hungry at the same time. You can appreciate where God has you and still long for what He’s leading you toward.

There are things you want to accomplish. God puts those desires in your heart. And the beautiful thing is, you don’t have to choose between ambition and contentment. Both can live together.

Jesus showed us this. He came with a clear purpose—to be the sacrificial offering. But He wasn’t content to only fulfill that purpose at the cross. He was hungry to make an impact throughout His life. Every moment mattered. Every interaction was intentional.

As you walk toward financial freedom, I want to encourage you to think beyond your own needs. Let your progress open your eyes to the ways you can serve others.

Reflection Question

How can I stay hungry to improve the world around me once God has satisfied my needs?

Prayer of the Week

Dear God, Thank You for the blessings You’ve placed in my life. Now that my needs are cared for, help me see the needs around me more clearly. Show me how to serve others with what You’ve given me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Happy Thanksgiving!
