Live with a grateful heart! What are the things you are thankful about today?

Thanks a ton to bring up this wonderful topic. You are correct, We need to be thankful to God about all that we have. Today, I am thankful about - I am alive adn healthy, working sitting in my office - I am 5 months pregnant, and this pregnancy came after a period of wait for me. This happiness is a gift from God - I ate a good lunch. - I was dropped ot office by my husband - I drank milk, ate almonds, orange, other snacks and many many things..

I do believe that if we take the time to think about the things we are grateful for, we will realize how blessed we are and then be happier and will want to share the blessings we have. This morning I was grateful for waking up and feeling okay. I was also thankful for the greeting of my dogs as I walked up to my roofdeck. I was thankful for the fresh air and the birds playing in the trees, for the sunlight on my face, for the trees in the park below. I thanked God for the fruits of my avocado tree that are not yet quite ready to be eaten. I thanked God for my breakfast cooking downstairs in the kitchen. I thank God for the water coming out of my shower, the sweet smell of the bath, my towel. I am grateful that I have work to hurry to in the morning. I am grateful that I meet people on my way to work, grateful for their smiles. Every minute of my day I can find something to be thankful to God for because it could have been otherwise. Just think how difficult life would have been had we been living elsewhere where there are wars, famine, disease, godlessness. We are blessed and we should be grateful.

I am grateful for so many things in life. I am grateful for my family and my friends. I am grateful to have food, clothing and shelter for my family. I am thankful for the many blessings that God has given to me.
