7 being rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, and overflowing with gratitude. (Colossians 2:7 CSB)

We have almost made it through a most difficult year. We may not have everything we want, and may have struggled, but we are alive and here at this point.

Thus the question posed is are we overflowing with gratitude?

Many find it difficult to even keep a basic mindset of gratitude. Pushing that concept to “overflowing”, especially in a hard year, seems to be simply asking too much.

Yet, for most of us, if we look just a little deeper and look at every aspect of our lives, can see that it should be considered overflowing. Yes, there are some who have far less and have difficulty seeing life this way. I often times do as well. But this is far more my own failing than Gods. He has been good to me even when I was not being good to Him.

Try to find that element of your life where you can have an overflowing gratitude, and thank God for it.
