I feel a profound sense of gratitude as my heart opens up and overflows. The happiness within me radiates, reaching out to the world. His love comes through me and flows through me to others. It’s this perfect love that casts out all fear.
When I take a moment to observe my surroundings, I am reminded of all the blessings in my life, and for that, I am truly grateful. I think of something from the past, something from today and something really small I feel gratitude for. I take time to feel grateful. In this state of generous gratitude, I trust God and that He is working all things for the good of those who love Him. Trusting Him gives me peace and joy and hope.
With each passing day, as I continue to appreciate everything around me, I am rewarded with even more reasons to be grateful. Anticipation fills me as I witness His hand at work. I find joy and amusement in the mysterious synchronicities that unfold before my eyes. There are no “coincidences” when I trust God is at work.
Just as a blooming flower gives rise to countless seeds, I marvel at how abundance multiplies in my life. I reap what I sow. I know those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit. So I don’t grow tired of doing what is good, for I know - at just the right time - I will reap a harvest of blessing if I don’t give up.
I have learned to recognize blessings in all things. Even in the face of challenges, I see opportunities for growth and wisdom. I understand that as I treat all hardship as discipline; I don’t give God credit for the works of the one who comes to steal, kill, and destroy. No discipline feels good at the time, but I know it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace when I have been trained by it.
Today, I am grateful for the wisdom I have gained throughout my life. I have reaped a bountiful harvest and appreciate all that I have been graciously entrusted with, as well as the endless possibilities ahead of me.
Reflection Questions to ask Holy Spirit:
- What is something from the past, something from today and something really small that I FEEL grateful for?
- How can I show my appreciation for what I’m feeling grateful for?
- How can I show appreciation for all You’ve entrusted me with?
