One would ask: "What is the essence of gratitude?"
Often times, the demands and struggles of life undermine the willingness of the heart to give thanks. Notwithstanding, there are so many things to be thankful for. Our life, our health, our job, our marriage, and many more. So, next time when you're down because of something you don't have, remember that there are so many things to be grateful for, and life is the most important above all.
PS: A grateful heart paves way for more blessings. I share with you five scriptures to liven your spirit when you're down.
āO Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; Let us shout joyfully to the rock of our salvation. Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.ā Ps. 95:1-3
"I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord, the Most High." Ps. 7:17
"Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our "God is a consuming fire." Heb. 12:28-29
"Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God for ever and ever. Amen!" Rev. 7:12
