in wordfortoday •  7 years ago 

This is suppose to be a daily Devotional, but I kinda stop it for a while...my bad. Good day dear steemians, it's time for us to build our faith and renew our minds. THE WORD FOR TODAY.

I will be sharing about Gratitude.

Saying Thank you is one of the most effective charm I've seen...same goes with I Love You but that will be another day's business. People who appreciate the little they have never lack even if they don't have enough.

Matthew 6:9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 6:10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

Jesus, teaching his disciples how to pray started with Thanksgiving/gratitude. David who was a man after God's heart made gratitude his major duty in every ups and down he found himself. Let's look at some merits of being grateful:

  • Being grateful teaches you to be content with what you have.

  • Being grateful attracts more blessing and gifts from men and from God.

  • Being grateful brings about humility.

So what happens to a Ungrateful Heart;

  • The person is never satisfied.

  • Nobody will want to associate with someone who doesn't appreciate little things.

  • The person is filled with Pride.

There are more merits and demerits of having/not having a grateful heart which I would love to hear from you all in the comment section.

Till next Time
Keep Steeming
Stay blessed
