Day 317 - Gratitude

Specially in times like Christmas, we feel more devoted to give thanks for the wonderful blessings that God places on our little lives. God not only gives food, shelter and clothing, most times He gives us things that are extraordinarialy unecessary, it's way more than we need.

But we should be thankful at all times, Christmas or not Christmas. Thanksgiving day or not Thanksgiving day.
I find myself a lot more thankful when things are bad, when I only have a little bit to survive and like the Bible says, for the one who is hungry, even what is bitter tastes sweet.

That's how I feel in dry times, and then I notice, when more prosper times come, and God blesses me with the things or accomplishments I was waiting for, I begin to complaint and to not see the good in everything.

That something I believe most of us need to work on. Being grateful at very little. Not forgetting everything He has already done to us.

I pray Jesus will help me to be grateful, as well as He will help you in this way, or whatever else needs to be worked out in you.  Amen. Merry Christmas!
