Negativity bombards me from the television, the radio, and yes, Facebook. Whenever the world around me seems to be comprised sadness, hatred, anger, and the worst of other human beings, it is time for me to make a gratitude list. Making a gratitude list helps me to keep my focus on God. My Lord Jesus loves to hear and pass on my grateful praise to God the Father.
Gratitude List
Lord, I know your truth endures forever and that your merciful kindness towards me is great. Lord I want to praise you by listing some of the things I am grateful for.
I am grateful for:
- waking up this morning
- Jesus' obedience that ended with his death on the cross.
- your gift of the Holy Spirit that resides in me.
- your patience with me through the years that I turned from you
- my joyful, spirit-filled and spirit-led husband
- keeping my children from harm in dark places
- the faithful teachers you have sent and are going to send to me
- my mom, the prayer warrior, who kept me covered in prayer while I was living in worldly, dark places far away from you Lord.
- the many spiritual, financial, and material blessings that you have given me.
- the opportunity to be your servant
- the path you have set before me
- the joy I feel today
