Gratitude

Gratitude While Waiting

"Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart."
Psalm 27:14

Reflection

Waiting is hard, but you can wait thankfully. The waiting time is also time when God is working.

Prayer

God, teach me to wait with a light heart. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What are you waiting for now?
  2. How can we wait thankfully?
  3. What might God be doing while we wait?

5-minute activity

While waiting for something today, like dinner or a car ride, play "thankful alphabet": each person names something to be thankful for starting with the next letter. Read Psalm 27:13-14.
