Themes:
- The word Eucharist literally means thanksgiving — every Mass is a living act of gratitude to God.
- Jesus models gratitude as the first step before every miracle, teaching us that reverence begins with thanks.
3. Gratitude unites us with the Communion of Saints and all creation in one great chorus of praise to the Father.
Reflection Questions:
- When in your life has gratitude changed the way you saw a difficult situation?
- How does giving thanks — even before asking God for help — shape your relationship with Him?
- What small, everyday blessings do you often overlook that might deserve a moment of gratitude?
- How can you make thanksgiving a habit, not just a holiday?
