Hi,
Paint this picture in your mind; a garden showered with negativity instead of sunshine and gentle rain.
Or Imagine for a moment a kind gardener, gently tending to your soil, meticulously pulling weeds, and whispering encouragement. Even though you feel like a wilting flower, struggling to find your light, he repeatedly whispers, you are so beautiful and lovely. You are radiant and bring me so much joy.
That gardener is God, and you, my dear , are His magnificent garden.
Pastor Rick Warren said this: When you complain about something, how does that help you?If you complain about the way you look, does it change the way you look? Nah.. but we , yes me included find ourselves doing it.
“Complaining is a waste of time. It doesn’t change anything. Instead of complaining, focus on finding joy and gratitude in your life.
God wants you and I to overflow with happiness.”Yes, God wants our life to “overflow with joy and thanksgiving for all he has done” (Colossians 2:7 TLB).
Let us Cultivate Gratitude
Just like a garden needs care to flourish, we need to nurture our inner selves with gratitude, appreciation, and positive self-talk.
"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity.It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend." Melody Beattie
I AM GRATEFUL FOR YOU, my friend. Grateful for family, grateful for life. For one more day to do what he created me to do.
Because our kids learn from what we do than what we tell them here are 30 gratitude prompt to get you started when it feels like it is hard to come up with something to be thankful for or you just need something fresh to talk to God about. LOL!
