Gratitude is more than a feeling—it’s a weapon that shifts the atmosphere. Mikel reminds us that starting and ending the day with thankfulness grounds us, helps us see our circumstances differently, and even changes the way people experience us.
Research shows that gratitude builds resilience, strengthens relationships, and improves performance—and Scripture has told us all along to give thanks in every circumstance. This week, take a few quiet minutes with God, ask Him who you’ve been overlooking, and reach out to express your gratitude. Watch how it changes your day, your relationships, and your heart.
