Give Thanks for the Blessings Already on Their Way

Hey Beautiful Souls

​Let’s take a moment to think about something truly powerful: the blessings that are already on their way to you. 💫 We often get caught up in wanting more or wishing for the next thing, but how often do we pause and give thanks for what we can’t even see yet?

At Rhema Yoga, we believe in living with gratitude—not just for what we have right now, but also for what’s already coming. When we open our hearts and our minds to the idea that blessings are in motion, we create space for peace, abundance, and divine timing to flow into our lives.

The Power of Gratitude and Anticipation
Gratitude is a beautiful practice, but there’s a deeper layer to it: the gratitude for what we can’t see yet. Think about it like this: when you step onto your yoga mat, you’re not just practicing a series of poses. You’re setting an intention for growth, healing, and transformation. The same goes for life. When you choose to give thanks for the blessings that haven’t yet arrived, you’re stepping into a place of trust and anticipation.

In yoga, we talk about cultivating presence. It's about being in the moment, but also being open to the future and trusting that things are unfolding just as they should. Imagine living with the same level of trust in God’s timing. When we’re thankful for blessings that we haven’t received yet, we shift from waiting in anxiety to waiting in expectation.

Faith in the Unseen
Faith is the foundation of gratitude for things yet to come. Hebrews 11:1 reminds us:
"Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see."

When we live by faith, we trust that God is already working on our behalf. The job we haven’t gotten yet, the relationship that’s still in the distance, the healing we’re praying for—all of these are already in motion. The blessings you’re hoping for are already on their way, even if you can’t see them right now.
In yoga, we practice surrender—letting go of control and trusting the process. This same surrender applies to our faith. Trust that God is preparing the right path, even when it’s not clear to us. The blessings are coming, and it’s all part of His beautiful plan for your life.

Living in the Flow of Abundance
When we express gratitude for blessings we don’t yet have, we open ourselves up to receive them fully. This is where the concept of abundance comes in. It’s about recognizing that there is more than enough—more love, more joy, more peace—ready to flow into our lives.

Gratitude acts as a magnet for abundance. When we are thankful for what we have now and what’s coming, we align ourselves with the flow of God's love and provision. It’s like when we show up to the mat with an open heart and trust in the practice—amazing things happen.

A Simple Practice of Gratitude
Here’s a practice you can try today:

1. Pause and Reflect: Take a few deep breaths. Close your eyes and connect to the present moment.
2. Give Thanks for the Unseen Blessings: Think about the things you’re waiting for—whether it’s a new opportunity, healing, or a new chapter in life. Now, give thanks for those blessings, knowing they’re already on their way to you.
3. Live with Expectation: Throughout the day, live with the expectation that good things are coming. Carry that peaceful confidence in your heart.
4. Surrender Control: Let go of the need to know how, when, or where it will happen. Trust in God's perfect timing.

Expect the Best
It’s easy to focus on the challenges or the things that aren’t going your way. But by choosing gratitude, you invite God’s goodness into every situation. You start to see the potential in everything, even in the waiting.

When you speak life into your situation with gratitude, you give room for miracles to unfold. It’s like giving your intentions the space to bloom into something greater than you could have ever imagined.
Gratitude for what’s already on the way is about faith in the process. It's knowing that God has your back and is already moving things behind the scenes. So why not celebrate what’s coming? Dance in the joy of anticipation, knowing that blessings are on their way to you right now. ✨
