Let your Thanksgiving Overflow into Thankful LIVING
A GRATEFUL heart has a CONTINUAL feast.
Satisfied. and content.
Gratitude can change our perspective and the way we perceive EVERY moment.
"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. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow."
......................Because a grateful heart is confident and at rest in the GIVER of all GOOD things. Knowing that all of life is filtered through the hands of GRACE. Gratitude can turn every encounter, every experience into something extraordinary and miraculous. There is something REDEMPTIVE. Something BEAUTIFUL. In every moment. So be grateful.

But one final and important word. Gratitude changes our heart. It changes our perspective on life. We are overwhelmed with AWE by the GOODNESS that surrounds us. That's *ONLY* the beginning. Don't let it stop there!!!!! Let your THANKGIVING overflow into thankful LIVING. Let it MOVE you to PURPOSEFUL LIVING. Out of the abundance of what we've been given.....being compelled..........to *GIVE* The end of gratitude is not contentment and resting satisfied and full. Thanksgiving overflowing into thanksLIVING. Thankful GIVING.
The end of gratitude. GIVING without hesitation. LOVING without reservation.
Realizing that the only way we can truly influence the world around us is to constantly be pouring OUT the abundance of LIFE we've been given. Being not just TOUCHED and GRATEFUL; aware of the GOODNESS of God. SO consumed by gratitude, in AWE of His blessings. But letting it overflow into not only PRAISE but being moved and compelled to GIVE. SO grateful that it spills out into life around you, those around you and changes the very atmosphere around you. SO grateful that it spills out into thankful LIVING.
