Give thanks to God and Christ for their goodness, love, grace, and power.

Express your gratitude in God and Christ through your words and actions.

Face the challenges and difficulties of life with gratitude in God and Christ.

Look forward to the fulfillment of your gratitude in God and Christ when He returns.
