There are two things we can be grateful for as Americans. First, that God (in his sovereignty) placed us here. And second, that here is not home. We've been sent here by God to seek the good and welfare of this place so that others might know God's goodness in Jesus Christ personally. But while we've been sent here, here is not home. As followers of Jesus our citizenship is in Heaven, and from there we await our Savior who will come and fully transform us.
We live with more comfort, connection, and choices than almost any generation before us — and yet so many of us are still restless, anxious, and dissatisfied. The cure is thankfulness. We're looking at what Scripture actually teaches about gratitude. Not as a feeling we have to force, or one more spiritual habit to cram into an already full life, but as a posture we learn over time.
