Make Note Of Your Blessings

Write down the things in your life that you are thankful for. Then give thanks for these blessings. You’ll be surprised to find all the things you can be thankful for.

I did this one day–-and the exercise took me back to my early twenties. Who knew all the blessings that one could be thankful for! I do this exercise every time I feel myself getting grumpy and displeased with the outcome of certain situations or when difficulties arise that don’t seem to have a solution.

Showing Gratitude Shows Humility

As I’ve said before...many times before...we are not perfect, and negative emotions and situations will come into our lives, but we have to recognize them for what they are, acknowledge them, put them in God’s hands, then move on. Don’t linger with worry over difficult situations. When you put them in the right hands...they always work out for the best. This in itself is something to be thankful for!

Think of all the little things that bring joy into your life. Giving words of gratitude and thanks...for all the blessings we have, shows humility. It brings clarity, order and acceptance into our lives. It puts our lives into proper perspective, and it reminds us that things are never as difficult as they seem.

Being grateful for what we give and receive, what we see, feel, taste and experience...brings us to such a high vibrational level, that positive things can’t help but manifest themselves in our lives.

It's Not Easy Being Thankful During Difficulties

Give words of gratitude and thanks for the people who love you. Tell someone who is important to you or has helped you... that you’re thankful for their presence in your life. Let them know how much you appreciate them. These are little things...but we can be thankful for even the smallest things.

When I’m with my family and friends... my heart fills with awe and love, as I appreciate the joy and happiness around me. Being grateful for the things you have in life will make your journey to abundance much smoother.

We find it very easy to be thankful for everything positive in our lives...but we find it really difficult to do the same for the things that don’t go well for us. When we get stuck in this mind-set, we tend to forget to appreciate what we have. Resignation and resentment sets in and tells us to give up and blame someone else for what’s happening. Then we begin to think about what we’re missing in our lives, and the entire concept of gratitude escapes us.

Appreciate The Abundance You Have

Giving words of gratitude and thanks is one of the fastest ways to appreciate our lives and feel happier. So if you stop now...just for a moment...to appreciate what you already have in your life--you will begin to feel happier and more abundant.

So what are you feeling grateful for today? Be blessed! And may you always prosper!
