Cultivating gratitude to guard against temptation.
Sovereign Lord, help me to cultivate a heart of gratitude. Thankfulness can guard my spirit against temptation and discontent. Teach me to marvel at the beauty of Your creation and appreciate the blessings in my life. May my focus be less on what I lack and more on what You provide. In Your abundant grace, I find peace. Amen. (1 Thessalonians 5:18; Philippians 4:11)
