Gratitude Focus: Stillness and god’s presence

Written by Orvin Kimbrough | May 31, 2026

Today, I’m grateful for rest and reflection.

Reflection/Why I’m Grateful:

Since today is a bank holiday, I had the gift of a slower start to the week. Typically, I’m preparing for my first meeting at 7:30 a.m., but this morning, I delayed my walk to sit out on the balcony and take in God’s sunrise. There’s something peaceful about simply sitting in the awareness that God is in control.

It’s rare that I begin a day like this—just sitting, breathing, and observing nature—but today, I was reminded of how grateful I am to have a quiet place to experience God’s presence.
