Gratitude: "It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High; to declare your steadfast love in the morning, and your faithfulness at night, ..." Psalm 92:1-2
Disappointment used to have us focusing on our lack and each injustice or insult we weathered at the hand of someone else. Yet, when we cultivate an attitude of gratitude it causes praise to rise up within us.
Is God showing you a relationship where your expectations are leading you to disappointment? Can you learn to accept where your friends and loved ones are in life? Are you willing to love the real them and not just the image of who you want them to be?
"Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man! For he satisfies the longing soul and the hungry soul he fills with good things." Psalm 107:8-9
