Living with Gratitude

What you’ll hear in Episode 003 Living with Gratitude:

• Gratitude is a choice and a habit – choose to see the gifts in your life, rather than the disappointments.  See the positive aspects of your children and husband, rather than focusing on the disappointments.

• When we are conscious of the gifts in those around us, the disappointments don’t take on the gravity that they do when we aren’t living gratitude.

• Living a spirit of gratitude helps us appreciate the simple joys in life.

• It fosters detachment to material things and detachment to our will

• If we’re focused on what we don’t have, we completely miss the blessings in our life.

Modeling Gratitude for Our Children

• As we model gratitude for our children, we’re teaching them to be thankful for all their blessings.

• Finally, it’s important to teach our children to be grateful to God – even for things that don’t seem like gifts.

• If you live your life looking to be grateful, the hard things aren’t so hard.  You’ll know you can get through them because you trust that God loves you as you have witnessed all His many blessings.

Live with gratitude, my friends.  See your blessings.  Take care-
