Reading Plan

Biblical gratitude is at the core of what it means to trust God as we follow Him. It is the habit of turning our hearts and minds to notice God at work. True gratitude is a posture of surrender, of taking time in all circumstances to pay attention, remember, and praise God for who He is, what He has done, and what He continues to do. In this three-week study, we will read what Scripture has to say about giving thanks in all seasons—in times of joy, sorrow, want, waiting, rest, and more.

This reading plan was created by She Reads Truth, a ministry that exists to equip women to read and know the Bible. You are invited to access She Reads Truth daily devotions that go along with this plan. You can find out more about this ministry by visiting their website.
