Growing In Resilience: A Prayer JourneySample
Resilience Practice: Gratitude
In what ways are you aware of God’s goodness? ‘Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever’.
‘One is never lacking in opportunities to be happy because around every corner is another gift waiting to surprise us, and it will surprise us if we can achieve control over our natural tendencies to make comparisons, to take things for granted, and to feel entitled’ – G.K. Chesterton.
When practising gratitude we recognise that we are not ultimately producers and consumers, but above all, the recipients of blessings.

About this Plan
Whether confronted with difficult life events or extended periods of pressure, resilience helps us to emerge stronger, wiser, and with a deeper faith. Yet such resilience is not automatic – it involves behaviours, thoughts, and actions that are learned and practised over time. This 40-day prayer journey helps us develop practices to grow that resilience.
