Gratitude For Each Step of Life

The biggest mistake we make when entering a new stage of life-be it parenthood, graduation, marriage, or a new job-is thinking the past was bad because we're in a better place now. But each step we take builds on the previous ones. We couldn't be where we are without those steps. Life is cumulative, and God works through every stage.
Often, we learn things from past steps that weren't our favorites, but dismissing them as "bad" misses what Jesus was doing then. Remember, the lessons from past stages are essential for our present blessings. Let's not demonize the past but recognize God's hand in every season.
Praise God for what He was doing then, praise Him for what He’s doing now, and embrace each step with gratitude. Our lives, filled with this gratitude, become a fragrant worship that God so richly deserves.
