Still I Will Praise: Responding to Chaos with Gratitude // Summer in the City // June 29th, 2025

Jun 29, 2025    Bruno Oliveira

In life’s darkest moments—when the job is gone, the diagnosis hits, or the doors close—we all ask the same question:


How do I respond to this chaos?


This powerful message explores the story of Paul and Silas in Acts 16, who chose to worship in the middle of the night, while imprisoned and beaten. Their praise didn’t wait for freedom—it brought it. For them. For others.


You'll also hear personal stories of immigration, loss, and unexpected peace—including a cancer diagnosis met with worship. These real-life moments remind us: Gratitude is not just a feeling. It's a decision.


What if your midnight praise is someone else's breakthrough?

This week’s challenge:


Each morning, name one thing you’re grateful for. In your midnight season, declare: Still, I will praise!


Scripture: Acts 16:22–34 (NLT)


Choose gratitude. Even when it’s hard.

Worship at midnight. You don’t need to wait for the miracle to praise.
