A Heartfelt Gratitude
Heartfelt Gratitude: A state of mind that acts in harmony with God’s character.
“Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His love endures forever.” Psalm 136:1.
Food for Thought...Thanksgiving is a time-honored tradition that holds a special place in the hearts of many. For me, this special day just gets me all kinds of wonderful inside. Life’s not always easy, and holidays aren’t always perfect or peaceful. This Thanksgiving especially comes with an extra dose of gratitude because the world we live in seems so full of strife. Gratitude brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. It is of great significance to God if even in the midst of great trials and difficulties, we can be thankful. Be encouraged to see beauty of this special day even in the midst of current life issues. A heart of thanksgiving guides us to see the good around us more than the problems that disturb us. Tuck the little moments in your heart. Every detail. The smells, the smiles, the joy. This will increase your hearts capacity to choose joy. Thanksgiving is a perfect time to thank the people who make a difference in our lives, near and far. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. When we remember what God has already given us, and the fact that we’re still alive to enjoy it, we already have reasons to give a sincere heartfelt thanks to God. Forever on Thanksgiving Day the heart will find the pathway home.
"Let us come to Him with Thanksgiving,. Let us sing Psalm of praise to Him." Psalm 95:20.
"Gratitude is the smile of the soul and the music of the heart."
Sweetest Blessings,
Jo
