Challenge #4: Make a list every day of the things you’re grateful for.
In an Instagram culture that constantly serves us up pictures of what our lives could be, it’s easy for our hearts to be filled with envy. It’s easy to forget about the ways that God has provided for us and focus on the ways He has provided for others. It’s even easier to buy into the lie that we have been forgotten.
But as followers of Christ, it’s important to ground ourselves in the blessings we have been given and entrusted with. It’s pertinent to talk back to the scripts in our minds that are telling us that we need more, or that we need to keep up with the Joneses.
When we speak back to the envy that permeates our hearts in an age of social media comparison, it is an act of holy rebellion against the lies of the enemy.
In your morning or evening devotion routine, set some time aside to make a list of the things you have in your life that you are grateful for. Take time to thank God for each of these blessings and pray that He would remind you of the ways He has provided for you before and will provide for you again.
Pray:
Father of all, You are so good. You are a God who sees and knows and gives generously to Your children. I pray for protection against the lies that tell me that I need more or that I don’t measure up. I pray that as I take account of the things You have done in my life, that they would stand as a testimony of Your goodness and Your faithfulness. I pray that I would be found grateful for all the ways You show Your love to me. May this simple practice of counting my blessings humble me so that I may live out of a place of gratefulness. Amen.
