Beyond comparison and complaint, can we embrace gratitude and God's abundant grace?

from Novena Preaching @ Novena Church · host Novena Church

This week’s theme is ‘gratitude’, why it matters and how we can live it out. Gratitude is a spiritual virtue present across all faiths and cultures, often expressed through offerings or acts of thanksgiving. For Catholics, the Eucharist is our greatest act of thanksgiving.As Scripture reminds us, “My grace is sufficient for you.” Even in weakness and suffering, God remains present and active. A grateful heart helps us recognize His grace and draw strength from it.Inspired by Mary’s Magnificat and the story of the one leper who returned to thank Jesus, Fr Eugene invites us to move beyond comparison and complaint, and to give thanks for the blessings already in our lives: our health, relationships, daily provisions, and the quiet presence of God.- Novena Devotion by Fr. Eugene Lee, C.Ss.R. (19 July 2025)
