I'm Grateful

Gratitude is a secret weapon that though well known, very few uses. Being grateful is an attitude of the extremely wise. It strengthens relationships and keep doors of favour open for long.

It doesn't matter how big or small the favour, gratitude is a nice feedback to the giver. It says,  the favour or gift is appreciated.  Not to show gratitude is equated to a thief carting away personal goods.

In a spousal relationship, saying thank you will go a long way in strengthening the bond. Don't take everything as a right. Appreciate the thought and not necessarily the worth of a gift.

Our Maker also deserves our gratitude. He must receive thanks daily. We may have a long list of unmet expectations, but if you have breath in your nostrils you have a  reason for thanksgiving.

One the difference between Saul and David is their show of gratitude. In the Bible, you will find various accounts of David giving thanks to God. For Saul, is tank of thanks was running on red.

Genuine givers of thanks, are always a favourite with God. There are so many things we daily receive that we take for granted. So many ways in which God shows up for us. We may never know the extent of God's help, that's why we must give Him thanks, daily.

Psalms 105:1
O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
