Read: PSALM 103:1-22
Meditation verse:
“Bless the Lord, o my soul, and forget not all His benefits” (Psalm 103:2) So, are you a grateful person? Here is a checklist for you.
Grateful people are content with what they have. They believe that everything they own is a blessing from God. They eschew the self-entitlement mindset, believing they have received all by God’s mercy and grace.
Grateful people attract peace to their lives. “Thankfulness creates gratitude which generates contentment that causes peace” (Todd Stocker). Are you at peace or constantly fret over everything?
Grateful people are cheerful givers. Because they believe they have freely received from God, they are willing to freely give back to others.
Grateful people are faithful people. They are FAT- faithful, available, and teachable. (not fay in weight).
Grateful people easily forgive others. They acknowledge their own humanity and are willing to overlook the shortcomings of others. By extension, they are accommodating of others. Do you find it easy to let people go or you hold on to offences?
Grateful people have no need to compare themselves with others. They are content with who they are and what they have. “…But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise” (2 Corinthians 10:12). Grateful people are wise.
Lastly, grateful people always attract God’s presence and blessings upon their lives. God inhabits the praise of His people (Psalm 22:3) and wherever God dwells, blessings are sure to abound.
Therefore, by Him, let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name” (Hebrews 13:15).
