Rise Community Church

In this special 10 Year Anniversary message, we're reminded of the transformative power of gratitude in our spiritual lives. Focusing around Psalm 100:4-5, which calls us to enter God's gates with thanksgiving. This scripture isn't just about ritual; it's a profound invitation to recognize God's enduring love and faithfulness. As we reflect on our lives, we're challenged to count our blessings, even in difficult times. The message draws parallels between our struggles to be thankful and the stories of transformed lives in the Bible, like the sinful woman who anointed Jesus' feet. This comparison invites us to see our own need for grace and how it can fuel our gratitude. True gratitude isn't just a feeling, but an action that manifests in worship and service to others. As we embrace this attitude of thankfulness, we're promised that it will bring healing, insight, and peace to our lives, transforming us into people of hope.
