A Heart of Gratitude

1 Thess 5:16-18
16 Be joyful always; 17 pray continually; 18 give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. -NIV


I read a sign the other day that said, "the simplest form of Joy is gratitude."

Want to start your day out with a smile and lifted spirit? Take time to be grateful. Pause for a moment and tell God thanks for all of the many wonderful things in your life.

Yeah, I know that all of us could list the "not so good" things but guess what? There is no joy there!

Trust me, just a few moments spent telling God thanks for all the many blessings in your life and you will be on your way to a day filled with gratitude and joy.

Oh and the other "not so good" things, don't worry, God will give you grace for those as well!

Blessings,
Darren
