Cultivating a Heart of Gratitude
Cultivating a Heart of Gratitude — Anything we immerse in Thanksgiving, will Increase!
Throughout the day, make it a point to practice Gratitude and Thanksgiving in every situation.

Read…. Psalm 100 and Colossians 3:15-17
“Make a joyful shout to The LORD, all you lands! Serve The LORD with gladness; come before His presence with singing. Know that The LORD, He is God; it is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For The LORD is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations.” Psalm 100:1-5
“And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to The LORD. And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of The LORD Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.” Colossians 3:15-17

As you go about your daily activities, be conscious of walking in an attitude of gratitude with you. Be Intentionally Thankful Let it permeate every interaction, every task, and every decision.
When faced with frustrating and difficult circumstances choose to focus on God’s Goodness and Faithfulness instead of dwelling on negativity, and complaints.
