 BEING THANKFUL-WITH A FOCUS ON THANKFULNESS 


IS A MINDFUL THOUGHT OF CONSCIOUSNESS 

IT IS A PREEMINENT STATE OF AN ULTIMATE MINDSET


WHEN WE GIVE THANKS-GOD GIVES US AS HUMANS MORE TO BE THANKFUL FOR


AND WHEN WE THANK GOD-WE ACKNOWLEDGE & REVERENCE HIM


~FOR WHO HE IS, AS WELL AS, FOR WHAT HE DOES, AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO

 WE SHOULD BE THANKFUL TO OTHERS SUCH AS FAMILY & FRIENDS

~AND FOR THE SOVEREIGNTY AND POWER OF AUTHORITY


WHAT DOES THE BIBLICAL CONNOTATION & REVELATION SAY ABOUT BEING THANKFUL-THANKFULNESS & GRATITUDE?


Mat 25:40, Verily I say unto you, inasmuch, as you have done it to one of the least of these, you have done it to me”


1 Thess 5:16-18, Be Joyful always, never cease praying, No matter what happens; Keep Thanking God, In The Name of Jesus, This is exactly what God wants us to do”


Being A “Thankful Person’, means that one is aware of:

God’s work in the World

His work in the Church and the Family

And IN Our Own Life-As We Express Gratitude & Appreciation to HIM



MAKING A BETTER INFORMED DECISION REGARDING THE UNDERSTANDING OF “THANKFULNESS & GRATITUDE”


THANKFULNESS IS MORE DIRECT THAN GRATITUDE IT GIVES YOU A SPECIAL FEELING ABOUT SOMEONE WHO HAS:

HELPED YOU WITH A WORK PROJECT

A FAMILY MEMBER WHO MAY HAVE GIVEN YOU A  NICE GIFT FOR XMAS

OR A FRIEND WHO LISTENED TO YOU ABOUT VENTING  YOUR WORRIES ABOUT OBSTACLES AND CHALLENGES IN LIFE

IT IS BOTH PRUDENT AND WISE TO ALWAYS BE THANKFUL WHEN OTHERS GO OUT OF THERE TO:

GIVE YOU A BREAK AND GENERALLY MAKE LIFE EASIER FOR YOU, ME THUS ‘US’


WHEN WE PRACTICE THE BENEFITS OF “GRATITUDE”

IT GIVES GREATER LIFE SATISFACTION

IMPROVES HEALTH-IMPROVES RELATIONSHIPS

EHHNACES PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL & MENTAL WELL-BEING

KEEPS THE MIND AND BODY STRONG

IT HELPS TO UTILIZE POSITIVE COPING STRATEGIES TO BETTER DEAL WITH STRESS-WHICH CAN BE A KILLER WHEN NOT MANAGED EFFECTIVELY 

IT HELPS TO BETTER SEEK & DISCOVER “INNER PEACE”

ALLOWS ONE TO BE GENTLE, EXPRESS KINDNESS AND EMBRACE FORGIVENESS, LIVE VALUES, AND PROMOTE PEACE
