Puso ng Pasasalamat

Lord thank you for EVERYthing. I could go on and on for all the things I am thankful for but your grace amazes me. If all of us can just take time to appreciate and be thankful for how insignificant we are to our great God, then we could spend the rest of our lives thanking Him and still it wouldn't be enough.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

New International Version (NIV)

¹⁶ Rejoice always, ¹⁷ pray continually, ¹⁸ give thanks

in all circumstances;

for this is God’s will for you

in Christ Jesus.

a beautiful poem to summarize how to have a thankful heart:

BE THANKFUL

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.

If you did, what would there be to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don't know something,

for it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times.

During those times you grow.

Be thankful for your limitations,

because they give you opportunities for improvement.

Be thankful for each new challenge,

because it will build your strength and character.

Be thankful for your mistakes.

They will teach you valuable lessons.

Be thankful when you're tired and weary,

because it means you've made a difference.

It's easy to be thankful for the good things.

A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who

are also thankful for the setbacks.

Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.

Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,

and they can become your blessings.
