#thankfulness

"It's easy and natural to be thankful when your expectations are met. The real test of your faith is when things don't go your way, or when you are in pain."

"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough"

"We pray for the big things and forget to give thanks for the ordinary, small (and yet really not small) gifts."

"Transform from being a fault-finder and blamer to a happiness-finder and appreciator."

"Perhaps it takes a purer faith to praise God for unrealized blessings than for those we once enjoyed or those we enjoy now."

"To witness miracles unfold in your experience, count your blessings and be thankful. Perceived small blessings accumulate to be the most powerful."

"Life without thankfulness is devoid of love and passion. Hope without thankfulness is lacking in fine perception. Faith without thankfulness lacks strength and fortitude. Every virtue divorced from thankfulness is maimed and limps along the spiritual road."

"Transform, from a fault-finder and blamer to a solution-finder and appreciator."

"It is only normal that people count losses with their minds, and ignore to count blessings with the graciousness of their hearts."

"I may not be where I want to be but I'm thankful for not being where I used to be."

"One of the main reasons that we lose our enthusiasm in life is because we become ungrateful..we let what was once a miracle become common to us. We get so accustomed to his goodness it becomes a routine.."
