![]() “O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever!” (1 Chronicles 16:34, AMPC) Constant Gratitude No matter what may be happening in the world around you, you can always find something to thank God for. Gratitude is a powerful force that opens the door to God’s blessing. Having constant gratitude proves your faith in God because not only do you thank Him for what He has done in the past, you thank Him for what He will do in the future. It’s that kind of faith that pleases God. Constant gratitude also shows humility because when we are thankful, we magnify God instead of magnifying our problems. It gives us proper perspective and opens the door for God’s grace, favor and supernatural empowerment. So what are you grateful for today? Are you grateful for the sun that shines and brings a new day? Are you thankful for the gift of eternal life? As you choose an attitude of constant gratitude, you’ll experience His mercy and loving-kindness in greater ways. You’ll be filled with His peace and joy and pave the way to move forward into the abundant life He has prepared for you! A Prayer for Today “Father in heaven, thank You for another day to praise You. Thank You for all You have done in my life. Help me to see Your hand of blessing as I continually acknowledge and praise Your name in Jesus’ name. Amen.” Joel Osteen

My sponsor said to me early in recovery, "Find five things to be grateful for each day."
Number one is my sobriety. He was my NA sponsor, even though he went to the AA fellowship, because like me, he qualified for both sides of the hall. He was also my spiritual adviser. He said, "A grateful alcoholic/addict will never have a reason to pick up." He may find lots of excuses, but no reason to pick up a drink or a drug. He said, "If you have one hand in the hand of YOUR God and the other hand in the hand of another still suffering alcoholic/addict, you will neve have any hands left to pick up your drug of choice in today."
