I have realized recently just how much an attitude of thankfulness can change your way of thinking about your life.
I want to encourage you today to give thanks always, no matter what is going on in your life. Thankfulness changes your perspective about your circumstances and the people around you. Thankfulness gives you a glimpse into all God has done for you and is still doing for you. Thankfulness allows you to focus on the positive in your life, instead of the negative. Thankfulness allows you to focus on what you can do, not what you can’t do. Thankfulness increases your joy and contentment. Thankfulness can bring you out of despair, it certainly has for me many times.
Paul tells us in 1 Thessalonians 5:18: “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
Choose to be thankful today and everyday! I choose thankfulness!
Until next time,
Beth
