Day 28 – Start a Gratitude Journal

How can we focus more on Christ?


We talked about being thankful on Day 6 of our journey to focus more on Christ. Depending on life’s circumstances, it can sometimes be challenging to focus on the many great things in our life. Maybe we need a little help to keep our focus in check. What about a gratitude journal?


A gratitude journal or just a piece of paper is all you need to write the things you are thankful for each day*. When we force ourselves to put something to paper, it forces us to reflect on life. We can then see the many blessings we have been given on this journey.


It’s so easy to take life for granted. We have so many good things from the air we breathe to the food on the table that we can praise God for! Maybe it’s time to start a new gratitude journal and gratitude journey. It’s a new year, let’s do new things!


1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

16 Rejoice always, 17 pray continually, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.


*If writing everyday seems overwhelming, then write in your gratitude journal once a week or only write a few words each day! There’s no wrong way to start focusing on all the great things in our lives!
