Gratitude Gives You Eyes to See
Paul wrote the book of Philippians from prison. How would you feel if you were imprisoned unjustly? Paul actually expressed gratitude for his imprisonment. This attitude of gratitude helped him to see the good things God was doing through his circumstances. If Paul was angry and bitter about his situation, he might not have seen that his persecution was able to help “advance the gospel.” When we decide to give thanks in all circumstances, it opens our eyes to the good things God is doing all around. (Scripture: Philippians 1:12-18)
