Positive thinking is important, but without proper roots, we may force our view of what is good in front of what God proclaims “good.” Gratefulness intersects with positivity in a realistic way which allows us to see what we currently have and entrust God with what is to come. He promises hope and a future for us (Jeremiah 29:11) and a life that is more than we can ask for or imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Read the full devotional here.
