Leviticus 7:15

For millennia, God’s people have been carrying out a weekly Bible study plan. Every year, they read through the Torah from Genesis to Deuteronomy. In synagogue each week, they read and study a Bible passage—the weekly parshah. This week’s parshah is called “Tzav,” which is Hebrew for “Command,” and covers Leviticus 6:1–8:36.

We’re all tempted to grumble about frustrations and disappointments, but the Bible reminds us of the many reasons to be grateful. Giving thanks helps us recognize God’s gifts and rejoice in the Giver. Spend the next week immersing yourself in Bible verses encouraging us why and how we can give thanks. But don’t settle for only learning about thanksgiving, practice it as each devotional prompts ways to give thanks.

This seven-day plan shares the importance of individual and shared memory in our practice of gratitude. Through powerful acts of remembrance such as communion, prayer, and Scripture reading, we remember the goodness of God and His faithfulness that was, is and is to come.

This seven-day plan outlines simple habits that lead to a life of gratitude. Whether it's training our tongue to say thanks or learning daily habits to increase gratefulness, this plan will boost your awareness of the goodness around you and help you live a life of gratitude.
