I appreciate the gratitude of others

Read I appreciate the gratitude of others
Creator made me for good and called it very good. He is good and I want to do good knowing people see my good works and glorify my Father in heaven. I know I am in the world to make a positive impact on others, and I appreciate when others recognize it. Because He sends rain on the righteous and unrighteous, I do good to all people.
As people go through the motions of life, saying ‘thanks’ is a gesture that is often taken for granted–with little thought being given to it. But I am still happy to hear it because I know deep down it is being expressed by someone that I somehow connected with.
I appreciate the gratitude of others.
When someone tells me how thankful they are, I don’t downplay it with “no problem” or “no worries” or “it wasn’t anything”. Instead, I appreciate the gratitude they show it with a heartfelt, “You are welcome!” When someone asks me for the reason for the hope I have, I am ready to tell it by doing it with gentleness and respect. In my heart, I have set apart Christ as Lord.
When my kids or grandkids say ‘thanks’ for a gift or for the time we spend together, I know it is something they truly appreciate. It lets me know that what I did warms their hearts and shows them I really love them.
Today, I embrace the positive feeling of being appreciated. Even when others forget to express their appreciation for my positive gestures, I know that I’ve done it as unto the Lord. I will not become weary in doing good, for at the right time, I will receive a harvest if I do not give up. So I do good to all people.
Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:
- How often do I say thank-you to others?
- Can I feel the gratitude of others even if they don’t thank me?
- Do people see my hope when I continue to show my appreciation and gratitude?
