Encouragement for Women in a Season of Gratitude
I am SO excited about today’s blog post! I have been working so hard on a project that’s always been a dream of mine to be an encouragement for women and we finally did it!
For the longest time, my Mom and I have talked about writing a devotional together to be an encouragement for women and we finally did it! We are both so passionate about encouraging women, and if you’ve been following me for some time you know that I’ve shared many of her posts here on my blog.
I had been praying about this idea of a devotional for some time, and with Thanksgiving right around the corner, gratitude seemed like the perfect topic to start with. My Mom agreed, and together we wrote this study for women of all ages.
The Devotional – An Encouragement for Women
We are thrilled to introduce you to Grateful – A 5 Day Study. Each day provides scripture reading, a devotional, a challenge, and a prayer. It’s available as both an e-book and a printable booklet as well.
The printable version includes space for taking notes, further study on the word gratitude, verses for further reading, and lists that encourage thanksgiving. Each page is numbered so that when printed, you can fold them in half to create a 21 page booklet!
We also put together a Grateful Bundle for you, which includes the e-book, the printable version, a gratitude wreath template, verse cards for memorization, Thanksgiving gratitude place cards, and a gratitude challenge for the month of November!
The Gratitude Wreath
The gratitude wreath template can be used in so many different ways. I cut my leaves out onto neutral shades of card stock and wrote down what I was thankful for on each leaf before making a laurel wreath.
If wreaths aren’t your thing, you could simply hang your leaves on a branch using a hole punch and some twine. Such a fun family project! I just love the way mine turned out.
Gratitude Thanksgiving Place Cards
These beautiful cards can be cut out and used at your Thanksgiving table. Provide pencils for your guests and ask everyone to write down what they are grateful for, then take turns sharing!
Gratitude Verse Memorization Cards
I chose some of my favorite verses on gratitude and made these cards so that you and your family could work to memorize scripture this thanksgiving season.
Place them in areas around your home where you’ll see them often and read them. I tried to make them beautiful for that very reason!
Daily Gratitude Challenge
This printable is so much fun. Everyday during the month of November, choose one or two topics and take turns as a family to share what you’re thankful for. It will encourage an attitude of gratitude and help all of us to remember how blessed we truly are!
I hope that this devotional and gratitude bundle is a blessing to you, I truly created it to be an encouragement for women. If it weren’t for the hours of time spent creating it, I would have made it free for everyone. We tried to keep the price as low as possible, and if you purchase it we’d love for you to share with us on social media! Tag us in your photos and show us how you used items in the bundle!
I love you guys so much – thank you for being here. I am so grateful for this blog and for you, my wonderful readers. You are always so encouraging to me!
PIN IT FOR LATER
Thank you so much for creating this devotional! I am getting the bundle. I have been praying for ways to share my Faith with family and friends who come into my home. I will set the verse cards around for myself and others as reminders of God’s goodness. Thanksgiving dinner for the extended family will be here and will use the gratitude lists for that. I’m looking forward to working through the devotional as we approach the Holiday season!
Dear Andrea,
a few minutes before watching your new video I said to my husband that I felt I wasn’t living the way I should. I constantly lack physical strength and various fears seem to have too easy access while, what I desire most, is to fulfil God’s will in my life and to be a joyful disciple who isn’t so easily shaken by obstacles. When I clicked on your video while ironing my children’s clothes, I felt it was God’s hint – to practise gratitude instead of sighing and complaining. I’ve just got your devotional bundle and I’m going to follow it (God accompany me, please). May our Lord Jesus Christ bless you and your mum.
Hugs and kisses from faraway Poland
Marta
Thank you Marta, I am so happy that God uses us in ways to encourage others, I truly hope it is a help to you!
Dear Andrea,

God bless you always,
Thank you Fran, I hope it is an encouragement to you!
