The Gratitude Equation
Colossians 2:7 | November 23, 2025
Xavier Maryland, Campus Pastor of Missouri City - SCBC
Gratitude isn’t a feeling you force, it’s the result of the way that you live.
7 Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness. Colossians 2:7
1. GRATITUDE STARTS WITH A LIFE ROOTED IN CHRIST.
Gratitude grows in our hearts before it ever proceeds from our mouth.
2. GRATITUDE IS SUSTAINED BY GODLY PRIORITIES.
3. GRATITUDE IS STRENGTHENED BY TRUSTING WHAT GOD SAID.
Gratitude isn’t pretending everything is fine, Its trusting that God is still good.
