Gratitude

Last night at Bible Study we talked about gratitude. It is fitting because last night was our last meeting prior to Thanksgiving. As I thought about it, there really are a lot of things that I am very grateful for (and I will get to that in just a second). I was reminded of the FREEDOM FIGHTER acronym again. The T is for Thankful Attitude. An attitude of gratitude will get us further in life than being a grouch. I cannot let busyness stop a thankful thought. Gratitude brings us closer to Christ and to others. We must thank those who have helped us on our journey. Being thankful is not a feeling it is a choice. We are blessed beyond measure, we should be grateful.

So what specifically am I feeling grateful for today?
Bennett
Stacey and Jason
Jessi and Lizzy
My parents
Friends
Grace
Epworth Forest
Hugs
Art
Music
Books
A great education
Ink pens
Indian Food

And the list could go on and on... but often times it is the small things that make life the best.
