One of the main reasons that we lose our enthusiasm in life is because we become ungrateful; we take for granted what God has done for us. We let what once was a miracle become common to us. We get so accustomed to goodness, it becomes routine; it doesn't really excite us anymore.

If you complain you will remain, if you praise you will be raised.

There's a lot that is good in your life — don't take it for granted. Don't get so focused on the struggles that you miss the GIFT of today.

DECLARE I am grateful for who God is in my life and for what He's done. I will not take for granted the people, the opportunities, and the favor He has blessed me with. I will look at what is right and not what is wrong. I will thank Him for what I have and not complain about what I don't have. I will see each day as a gift from God. My heart will overflow with praise and gratitude for all of His goodness. This is my declaration.

Have a new perspective. We're alive, we have air to breathe, we have the strength to get out of bed. We have family to love, we have a place to live, we have peace of mind, we're surrounded by God's favor. When you realize this day is a gift, then you will live it to the full.

Don't take anything for granted, not even the fact that you were able to get out of bed this morning without any help. When you opened your eyes, you could see. When you told your legs to walk, they obeyed. When your spouse said, "I love you," you could hear it. When your child gave you a hug, you could feel that embrace. When you ate breakfast, you could taste the food.

Remember this phrase: If you complain you remain, but if you'll praise you'll be raised.

Life only works when Jesus is everything and we are fully submitted to Him.

The task of life is to face sacred moments.

If you want to have a spiritual life you must unify your life. A life is either all spiritual or not spiritual at all.

No life is great that does not point to Christ.

Having faith, beliefs, and convictions is a great thing, but your life is measured by the actions you take based upon them.
