An Attitude of Gratitude

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts...and be ye thankful.  Colossians 3:15 KJV

For most of us, life is busy and complicated.  We have countless responsibilities, some of which begin before sunrise and many of which end long after sunset.  Amid the rush and crush of the daily grind, it is easy to lose sight of God and His blessings.  But, when we forget to slow down and say "Thank You" to our Maker, we rob ourselves of His presence, His peace, and His joy.

Our task, as believing Christians, is to praise God many time each day.  Then, with gratitude in our hearts, we can face our daily duties with the perspective and power that only He can provide.

Nobody who gets enough food and clothing in a world where most are hungry and cold has any business to talk about "misery." - CS Lewis

Developing an attitude of gratitude is key to a joyful and satisfying life.  So ask yourself this question:  "Am I grateful enough?"
