What is gratitude? And what does it mean? why should we be grateful to God, or to any one else? The definition of gratitude is thankfulness, gratefulness, and appreciation.
As Christians we are grateful to God for many things. I believe the gift of life is most likely on the top of our list. Is there anything more precious than life? It is our greatest gift from God. The second gift on our list might be our health. Health is important indeed. I’m sure the list includes our families, our friends, and our careers. The list is long. Gratitude expressed in words only, becomes superficial, but when we see divine intervention in our lives, we develop heartfelt gratitude. Martin Luther referred to gratitude as” The basic christian attitude, the heart of the gospel.” William A.Ward says” God gave us a gift of 86, 400 seconds today. Have we used one of those seconds to say thank you?” = To be continued.
