Always be grateful for everything. Recognize the blessings that God has given you. Remain focused on positive things. Gratitude is the ultimate spiritual practice. Gratitude helps US see GOD! Gratitude allows us to sense God's presence. Gratitude enables you to feel positive emotions and build strong relationships. Gratitude is a special gift given to us by God. God has perfect timing, and His care for us is impeccable; we all should be grateful for this alone.

Recognition
Gratitude has three qualities:
Feeling grateful for positive things in your life
Expressing your appreciation or gratitude to the people who have made your life better
Adopting new behaviors results from interacting with people who have helped you
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
"Rejoice always, 17 pray continually, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
Father, I thank You for my life, health, and strength. I thank You for being who You are in my life. Father, I thank You for everything You have given me. I thank You for everything You have taken away. Thank You for Your shielding protection, love, grace, and mercy. I thank You for Your healing power and anointing. Father, You have been better than good to me. Thank You for covering me amid anything that was not of You. Thank You for the purpose and will You have for my life. Father, I am so very grateful. I give You the praise, glory, and the honor, in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
"In all things I give thanks. I am grateful for every teachable moment and every moment that is joyful."- Alston Shropshire
