The position we are today, it is not by our doing nor does it mean we are the most deserving...

You are hardworking but there are people who are more hardworking than you yet they can't boast of what you have...

There are people who are more prayerful than you yet they are no more among the living, death took them!

There are people smarter and more influential than you but you were the chosen one to get the contract....

There will always be people better than us in things we do but the grace of God made us stand out....

Ungrateful people would say they see no progress or change in their life, they are busy pursuing other things and forget to count their blessings...

If only they could take their time to visit the hospital to see how rich people wish God can take their wealth and give them a good health, how some people spent lot of money to buy oxygen to keep them alive, the same air the ungrateful soul got for free...

There are so many reasons to be grateful and being alive is one of it! A grateful heart will receive more blessings because He loves those who appreciate His goodness in their life...

He created us in His image, the same way we feel when we help people and they appreciate us, which makes us want to do more is the same way He feels when he bless us and we appreciate Him whole heartedly....

Happy sunday famz! May this week favor us....

Thats a great post. Gratitude is so important as a means of settling up internally and balancing the books so to speak. It provides peace to the soul. The whole universe truly runs more sweetly when its balanced,

Hope you had a great weekend and best wishes :-)

Gratitude indeed goes a long way, some people has missed their chance to greatness due to the lack of a grateful heart.... It is when you appreciate small things that you will receive bigger ones.....

thanks for your best wishes and may this week grant you your heart desires too😊

Grace is given to those who deserved it and not that we earn it. Yesterday, someone was preaching and trying to tell us the most two critical units in the hospital to visit, then, we would be grateful to God for what He has done for us since the beginning of this year.

Many times, I am always thanking God because the things I do easily, many are finding it difficult and has lost their lives and here I am today. We really need to be grateful for the things God has done instead of complaining of things we haven't seen being done for us. We would only be an ungrateful soul if we think only about that.

yea there is so much to see in the hospital, even though i have not been there, but those who visited told me what they saw and i could imagine how those sick people are really coping with pains...

So even if we did not have everything we desire, atleast we are healthy and alive which is priceless😊

Many times, I am always thanking God because the things I do easily

You are a grateful soul and God never forget His own people🤗

Omo, the last time I visited the hospital for the first time as an adult, I couldn´t keep those tears from falling and it moved me to thank God for my life. People are really suffering and struggling.

 last year  

yea we the healthy ones are the lucky ones! 😞

 last year  

Yes, we are!

I love this post.... it's imperative we look at the grace and opportunities God offers us on daily basis. There's a song that says count your blessings name them one by one and you'll see what the Lord has done

Appreciating the little ones only pave way for greater ones.. have a blissful week too dear☺️

 last year  

yup before we can get th bigger ones, we must learn to appreciate the little ones..... Unfortunately we have so many ungrateful souls in the world and they wonder why things ain't going so good for them
