Gratitude plays an important role in everyone’s life. It is an act of being thankful and being grateful of what you have whatever your life situation is; whether it is bad or good.
As I contemplate life, gratitude is one of the skills we should practice every day. It is one of the ways we can send to God how good life is. In reality, there are really good things than bad.
Even though I am suffering and struggling, do I need to be thankful?
The answer is yes. You should be thankful in any ways. It will give you a positive attitude towards life and it is also good in your mental health.
During the time of Jesus in the Bible, every time He heals the sick or perform a miracle, He always say thank you. In addition, the Bible is teaching us not to be anxious but to be thankful always by having petition in everything and thanking God of what He has done to us.
In addition, there are many motivational speakers around the world that imparts gratitude as a way to have an optimistic mind. Actually, during the time that I am so depressed, most of the people I met, they are saying to be thankful instead because it will give me perseverance and good character afterwards.
As a Christian, I exercise gratitude because we believe through faith that all the things that are happening to us will result for good because God is so good.
We affirm that life is still awesome to live. In all and everything there are still more goodness than bad. But some human magnifies the bad things. As the law of attraction imparts, what you focus it will be big. So, to have a positive outlook in life, you need to look always the good side in everything so that there will be more goodness and blessings in your life.
Say, “thank you” in advance for good and good will be bounce back unto you. If you receive money, say “thank you”, if you give money say “thank you”. The more you practice it the more you will create a positive life to yourself and to the people around you. You will emit light and the more light you give, your life will get better and better. As you cultivate gratitude, you can inspire more people to the world and you and I can be salt and light of the world, where negative can easily vanish.
That is how gratitude should be the number one focus of every human being. The more we are all grateful for everything the more we get goodness, mercy, and grace, and all the best life has to offer.
