Grateful for the Small Things
Zechariah 4:10 (NLT)
“Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.”
One afternoon in the hospital, Caleb noticed the sunlight through the window and whispered, “It’s a good day, Mama.” That tiny beam of light? It was a gift. Gratitude grows when we start seeing what’s already around us.
A smile. A warm meal. A quiet moment. A text from a friend. These are all holy.
Gratitude invites us to slow down and truly see.
Reflect: Name three “small” things you’re grateful for today. Say them out loud. Let your heart notice what your eyes often miss.

About this Plan
What if gratitude didn’t depend on what we have, but on who God is? This 5-day devotional explores how to live with deep thankfulness even in the face of suffering, loss, and uncertainty. Drawing from Scripture, stories of my son Caleb’s courageous gratitude during his cancer journey, and moments of grace that I’ve seen after his passing, this plan invites you to discover a gratitude that is unshakable—because it’s rooted in God’s character, not our circumstances.
