Thankfulness


Many of us are aware that we should be thankful for all God has done for us. But how many of us truly practice a thankful lifestyle or work to cultivate a thankful heart. Thankfulness does not come naturally. Our flesh is naturally self centered, selfish and concerned about what it does not have.

Take this test. Tonight, before going to sleep, review your day and write down every time that you complained, worried, or spoke negatively today. Each time you did this you were being ungrateful for what God has already done in your life. Think about it. Many of us have made a lifestyle of complaining, worrying and being negative. Make an effort to change this in your life starting today. Each time you realize you are complaining, worrying or saying something negative, search your mind for a positive thought instead.
