A Posture of Gratitude

Listen to Today's Devotion

God provides so many ways for us to grow in gratitude. Unfortunately, our attempts often follow this pattern: Find something negative in everything you see. Make a list of all the critical and unhappy thoughts that come into your mind. Notice how you feel when you are finished, and write those feelings down. Not much fun. A steady diet of critical, negative, ungrateful thoughts leaves us critical, negative, and ungrateful.

Now try the opposite approach: Find something positive in everything you see. Make a list of all the kind, generous, and grateful thoughts that come into your mind. And notice the difference.

What if this exercise became a way of life? Nobody other than you has the power to make you miserable and unhappy. This simple exercise will place your mind in a healthy posture of gratitude.
