Encouraging Her Resilience – Good Morning Blog
 
Good Morning, Resilient Woman of Christ,
 
Today, let’s rise with hearts full of gratitude, spirits clothed in humility, and minds fully surrendered to the perfect plan of Jesus Christ. No matter where you are in your journey—whether you’re on the mountaintop or walking through a dark valley—God is with you, and He is worthy of your trust.
 
In a world that teaches us to only be thankful when things are going our way, we choose to live differently. We are women of resilience. We are women of faith. And we know that even in the hardest of days, there is still something to be thankful for. Every breath we take is proof that God isn’t finished with us yet.
 
The Bible reminds us in 1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NLT):
“Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.”
 
This doesn’t mean we’re thankful for the pain—but we choose to be thankful in it. We choose to praise God even when we don’t understand. We choose to stay humble, knowing that His plan is far greater than anything we could ever imagine. Gratitude keeps us grounded. It shifts our focus. It reminds us that even when our situation looks uncertain, our Savior is still certain.
 
And humility? Oh sister, humility is the secret weapon of a woman who knows who her God is. It’s not weakness. It’s strength under surrender. It’s saying, “God, I don’t have all the answers, but I trust You do.” It’s choosing to lay down pride, release control, and trust that God is ordering every step—even the ones that feel messy, painful, or unclear.
 
Let this be the day you say, “Lord, I may not understand the season I’m in, but I will thank You anyway.”
Let this be the day you walk humbly, speak gently, love deeply, and trust fiercely.
Let this be the day you realize that everything you’ve gone through wasn’t meant to break you—it was meant to build you.
 
To the woman in recovery:
Your healing may not look like you thought it would, but that doesn’t mean God isn’t moving. Stay thankful. Stay humble. Keep trusting. He’s not done. You are not behind. You are right on time for God’s perfect plan.
 
Morning Prayer:
“Father, I thank You for today. Thank You for the breath in my lungs, for the lessons You’ve taught me in my valleys, and for the grace that carries me daily. Help me to remain thankful in every season, humble in every victory, and faithful in every trial. I trust Your plans for my life. I surrender my will and embrace Yours. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
 
Today’s Affirmation:
I choose gratitude over grumbling, humility over pride, and faith over fear. God’s plan for my life is good, and I trust Him completely.
 
A Bold Reminder:
You may not be where you want to be, but you are not where you used to be—and that alone is a reason to lift your hands and thank God.
