Giving thanks

Giving thanks is God’s will for us, for me.  I don't always do well with this. Sometimes it seems as though I’m just saying the words out of an obedience, from a desire to please You, my Abba.  Saying the words sometimes causes the feelings to follow.

Being grateful - like love - is an act of the will, a choice we can choose, an attitude we can adopt, a lesson we can learn.  Help me, Abba, to open my heart to the possibilities, to the realities of grateful living.
