Being grateful makes us happy.

One day I was on FB and saw a short video that caught my attention. It was about how being grateful on a daily basis makes people happier, because when we focus on the positive details in our every day with an appreciative heart it starts to fill our hearts with a special feeling of gratitude & joy. This is so powerful that it takes so much power from the negatives in our lives. This short clip was encouraging people to take a 30 day gratitude challenge, where you would write down every day at the end of the day, all the things you were grateful for. So it makes you focus and appreciate the people in your life that day or events, just small details even a smile from a stranger that made you smile back, anything you can think off that comes across your way. But during the 30 day challenge IT IS NOT ALLOWED to say or think anything negative, even though your problems are still present, just allow yourself to not think about them in a way that they would steal your peace, just know that the enemy is an expert making us down about logical things, but God's joy and peace come from an apparent unlogical way, but oh SO EFFECTIVE AND POWERFUL . I accepted the challenge, and OH BOY!!!! it was the best month ever since who knows when...(lol)

That month changed my whole life!

I was never the same, it just made me a happier and more appreciative person.

''always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.'' (Ephesians 5:20)

'' And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. ''(Colossians 3:17)

Prayer: Father help me to have a grateful heart despite the circumstances that might come my way, because you are always in control and have the final say.

thank you for this day, my family, my friends and thank you because you sustain me no matter what, in Jesus name I pray.
