THANKFUL FOR GOD’S BLESSINGS (1)

“He has made His wonderful works to be remembered; the Lord is gracious and full of compassion” – Psalm 111:4

More than at any other time, the count-down to the end of a year is apt time to be THANKFUL FOR GOD’S BLESSINGS: “The works of the Lord are great, studied by all who have pleasure in them. His work is honorable and glorious, and His righteousness endures forever.

He has made His wonderful works to be remembered; the Lord is gracious and full of compassion” (Psa.111:2-4). Everyone has different reasons for being thankful. Some people are thankful for friends and family, others for their health or cherished possessions. We give thanks by reflecting on all of the things we’ve passed through, the small and the great things. There are numerous things to be thankful to God for – both the obvious and not so obvious blessings. Being thankful is a great way to lift our spirits and become more positive and healthier.

Thankfulness is one of life’s greatest virtues. It is a positive human emotion that is linked to better well-being, more success in relationships and general life satisfaction. We can practice and grow in the Attitude of Gratitude. Here are some blessings that I am thankful to God for:
