That's why you can be thankful | Family Bigger

2025/12/21 | Family Bigger

In this sermon “That’s why you can be thankful,” Family Bigger teaches that when God gives you a word or promise, gratitude is the gateway from promise to miracle. Using Simeon’s example (Luke 2:25–26) and scriptures like 1 Thessalonians 5:18 and Psalm 100:4–5, you learn to be thankful in the waiting season—recognizing small signs (“the smell of the cookies”) and trusting that God keeps his promises.

Practical takeaway: hold the promise, celebrate incremental progress, and decide to give thanks now (not only at the finish). Gratitude shifts your focus from anxiety to faith and prepares your heart to receive the fulfillment God is preparing.

Call to action: identify one promise God has given you, thank him today, and keep watching for the next step.
