Without gratitude and appreciation for what you already have, you’ll never know true fulfillment.
I'm just very thankful. And I say that a lot because that's the most important message.
Practice being grateful for everything that life has blessed you with.
The thankful heart opens our eyes to a multitude of blessings that continually surround us
The life that counts blessings discovers its yielding more than it seems.
Try to realize all the blessings you have, and you will find perhaps that they are more than you suppose.
Every day is a day to be thankful. Life's abundance has no limit, and gratitude is what keeps that abundance flowing. In every circumstance there is something for which to be thankful. Even when there seems to be nothing else, there is hope.
In counting gifts, to one thousand, more, I discover that slapping a sloppy brush of thanksgiving over everything in my life leaves me deeply thankful for very few things in my life.
The rains of Life's Blessings cannot gather on mountaintops of pride, but flow easily into valleys of humbleness.
Gratitude. More aware of what you have than what you don't. Recognizing the treasure in the simple - a child's hug, fertile soil, a golden sunset. Relishing in the comfort of the common.
The practice of giving thanks...eucharisteo...this is the way we practice the presence of God, stay present to His presence, and it is always a practice of the eyes. We don't have to change what we see. Only the way we see.
Sometimes, when God blessed me with something, I would feel guilty. Then I realized this was wrong, because a blessing is a blessing is a blessing.
