I want to thank GOD for everything he as done for me cause without him none of this wouldn't be possible.

The cause of this is not the rage and wickedness of the devil, nor that of the hordes of his Mohammed, but the damnable ingratitude and contempt for the Gospel on the part of those who have it but do not seriously care about it and see to it that they retain it.

In order not to forget God and through lack of restraint to misuse one's good fortune, it is ten times more necessary to call upon God's name during a period of bliss than in the midst of tribulation.

These two truths are the same in weight and importance. Accept and love WHO and WHERE you are now, and all good things shall find you there.

Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.

Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all others.

Life without thankfulness is devoid of love and passion. Hope without thankfulness is lacking in fine perception. Faith without thankfulness lacks strength and fortitude. Every virtue divorced from thankfulness is maimed and limps along the spiritual road.

A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all other virtues.

When they did, she wore a dress, but she grumbled the whole time.

Counting each day's blessings helps you overcome each week's troubles.

Each moment in time we have it all, even when we think we don't.

Gratitude isn't a tool to manipulate the universe or God. It's a way to acknowledge our faith that everything happens for a reason even if we don't know what that reason is. ~Melody Beattie, 52 Weeks of Conscious Contact, pg. 34.
