“GRATITUDE helps us see GOD. Gratitude opens our spiritual eyes. There’s a beautiful cycle in giving God thanks: the more we thank Him, the more we see Him working in us and around us. Gratitude helps us sense God’s presence, His personal care and His perfect timing.” We find this words from Lisa Appelo blog to be instructive.
God moves with the level of your gratitude. Spiritual doors are open when you drench yourself in gratitude. There are so many benefits to staying grateful. As you move through the tides in a difficult situation, remember to be still and practice gratitude.
Here are some of our favourite bible verses that puts us in the mood of GRATITUDE:
