Being Grateful!

“Thank you, Jesus!” is what I can say to all God has and is continuing to do in my life!

My testimony is that I’ve grown and learned to give God THANKS in all things. Even when things were rough and extremely tight, the Lord reminded me to thank Him for life – not only mine but for so many. It’s such a common thing for us as humans, to complain.

Going through the hard times and wilderness is what makes us learn and grow to know our strength. Never in a million years did I think I would understand and like the scripture that says, “It was good for me to be afflicted so that I might learn your statutes” (Psalm 119:71).

In learning my strength, I was also able to identify a gift within me that I had been holding back on. Once I began being honest with myself and God, I started seeing the person I was purposed to be. Today I have so much gratitude for the Lord!

The key to filling ourselves with gratitude is to start with being thankful for all the wonderful things we have around us, instead of focusing on the things that we don’t have. When we live a life of gratitude, we unlock true happiness and begin our journey towards fulfillment and wholeness.

We can reprogram our minds by changing the way we think and feel daily. By daily expressing gratitude we ultimately increase our level of positive energy. We must open ourselves to the Lord - allowing ourselves to be vulnerable. This is a process that takes time, a lot of it. Keep in mind to be prepared for the crucifixion and the celebration that follows.
