Gratitude



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.

Jesus Christ was consumed with doing his Father’s will while he was in this world. He knew his time here on earth was short. He ensured that all the work that had been given to him was finished by the time he returned to heaven. So, again, what are you doing with your time, talent, and treasure? Are you wasting them on the temporal, disregarding the eternal reality we all are facing, or are you fixing your eyes on the eternal aspects of life?

Desiring only earthly things, with no thought of the eternal implications, is a formula for disaster.  “ For, as I have often told you before and now tell you again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is set on earthly things. But our citizenship is in heaven.
