Thankful and Grateful

 

Thankfulness is the

beginning of gratitude.

Gratitude is the completion

 of thankfulness.

Thankfulness may consist

merely of words.

Gratitude is shown in acts.

~ Henri Frederic Amiel

 

 

THE ROOT OF JOY

IS GRATEFULNESS.

FOR IT IS NOT JOY THAT

MAKES US GRATEFUL;

IT IS GRATITUDE THAT

MAKES US JOYFUL.

~David Steindl-Rast

 

 

Gratitude

can transform common days into

thanksgivings,

turn routine jobs into

joy,

and change ordinary opportunities into

blessings.

~William Arthur Ward

 

 

Among the things you can give

and still keep are your word,

a smile, and a grateful heart.

~ Zig Ziglar

 

 

There is

always, always, always

something to be

grateful for

~ Rhonda Byrne

 

 

Gratitude and attitude are not

challenges; they are choices.

~Robert Braathe

 

 

Enter his gates with thanksgiving

and his courts with praise;

give thanks to him

and praise his name.

Psalm 100:4

 

 

“I will praise the name of God

with a song,

and will magnify him with

THANKSGIVING.”

Psalm 69:30

 

 

REJOICE ALWAYS,

PRAY WITHOUT CEASING,

IN EVERYTHING GIVE THANKS;

FOR THIS IS THE

WILL OF GOD IN

CHRIST JESUS FOR YOU.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

 

 

Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirt with gratitude in your hearts.

May thanksgiving, which expresses itself in gratitude, be at the top of our list during this Holiday Season and beyond.
