And give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 5:20
Consider this, when our heart is grateful, it becomes like a magnet collecting more and more reasons to be grateful! More and more reasons to say, "Thank You Abba."
Did you know we inhale and exhale, on average, around 11,000 liters of air every single day? How's that for a reason to be grateful? How about the peanut butter that goes so well with the jelly that makes such a tasty sandwich? How about the cow who gave her milk so you can pour it in your coffee, on your cereal, or in your glass to dip your Oreos in? What about that bad pun that makes you chuckle?
Guess what an attitude of gratitude does? It burns of anxiety like the Sun burns off the mist. True gratitude pushes us to focus on God instead of ourselves!
Abba,
Teach us to be truly grateful. Show us what You have freely given us to be grateful for. Remind us of all You have given us when we take our eyes off of You.
