What Are You Thankful For?

Feeling down? Wishing you could change your mood with Thanksgiving Day around the corner?

 The song, Give thanks with a grateful heart is running through my mind and heart and prompted me to think about all the blessings God showers on us.

If you want to thrive emotionally and spiritually, keep focused on all you do have. Refuse to get bogged down by thinking about what you don't have right now in your life.

Even if life is not perfect, there is so much we can be thankful for. To start thriving, begin with these six suggestions, then add your own.

1.   Go stand in front of your closet and give thanks for all your clothes.

2.    Look at your food pantry and thank God for your daily bread.

3.    If you have a job, be grateful and pray for those who don’t.

4.   Anticipating a family gathering? Thank God for those who love you.

5.   Can you name three friends? They are gifts worth more than jewels.

6.   Be thankful that God always sees, hears, and cares for you.

The Lord is overflowing with blessings for those who turn to Him.  Think about all He had given you: Forgiveness, love, acceptance, purpose, spiritual power, a hope and a future. 

Question: What other blessings flash into your mind? Which flood your heart? Let us know in the comment box below so we can celebrate His goodness together.

“We give thanks to you, O God, we give thanks, for your Name is near” Ps.75:1
