Thankful & Grateful
In every situation [no matter what the circumstances] be thankful and continually give thanks to God; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thes. 5:18 (Amp.) Begin this week with gratefulness. Let thanksgiving spring from your heart, as you meditate on the goodness of God. Practicing gratitude helps us to maintain a positive attitude about our life and experiences. It helps us to focus on that which brings us joy and contentment. It keeps us from dwelling on the negative and giving energy to those things and people that bring us down. Be thankful at all times, for there is always something to be grateful for. The fact that you are here to give thought to gratitude is reason #1. Praise God for another day, then don’t waste a second of it entertaining negative thoughts, self-pity, worry or complaining. Count your blessings and attract productivity and positivity into your life. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon
