While thanksgiving takes center stage every fall, in reality, an attitude of thanks is one we should maintain throughout the year. Yet, that can prove difficult when the challenges of life make us anything but grateful!

Focusing on scripture is one strategy that never fails to lift my spirits, increase my joy, and shift my perspective.

Below you’ll find a few of my favorite verses about thankfulness. I hope these encouraging words leave you blessed and inspire you to keep a grateful heart all year long.
