It is amazing what happens when you take on the attitude of gratitude and work to live that out. The more you say thank you, whether itโs to a random person, a co-worker, family member, or our Lord and Savior, the easier it becomes- even to โthank you Father for this pain I am having, may You use it as You wish for Your gloryโ, whatever that pain may be.
It changes how you see others.
It changes how you see daily mundane things.
It changes you so you can see beauty in everything, and seeing that beauty makes you say โthank you my Lord!โ
Start small. Remember, a small seed, once planted, watered, and tended, grows large. You may now be that small acorn, but you can become a mighty oak.
Things not working out can sometimes be guidance. We have prayed for doors to be opened or closed in life. Later it was proven to be obvious that a choice we would have rationally made would have led to disaster. We are thankful to this day for many such things.
Gratitude is the most underrated aspect of Christianity. Itโs the foundation on which all joy and virtue rests.
I definitely donโt practice it enough. Thanks for the reminder!

You will grow.
