Thankful

 

"It's a heavenly thing 

to be thankful."

Charles Spurgeon

"Gratitude is an offering

precious in the sight of God.

It is an offering the poorest of

us can make and be richer

for having made it"

AW Tozer

"Yes,  give thanks for all things

as it has been well said,

"Our disappointments are just

His appointments."

AW Pink

"For those who have made thanksgiving

the habit of their life

their morning prayer will be,

"Lord, what will You give me today

that I can offer back to You?"

Elisabeth Elliot

"No matter how choppy 

the seas may become,

a believer's heart is buoyed 

by constant praise 

and gratefulness

to the Lord."

John MacArthur

There are times when

the entire arrangement of

our experience is disrupted

and we long then for just 

one ordinary day.

It's then that we see

our ordinary life as greatly 

desirable and even wonderful,

in the light of the terrible

disruption that has taken place.

Difficulties open our eyes

to the good things we once

took for granted.

Elisabeth Elliot

"You say 

"If I had a little more,

then I would be satisfied."

You make a mistake.

If you are not content 

with what you have

you will not be satisfied

if it were doubled."

Charles Spurgeon

"God isn't asking you to be thankful,

He's asking you to give thanks.

There's a big difference.

One response involves emotions,

the other your choices,

your decision about a situation,

your intent,

your step of faith."

Joni Eareckson Tada

Only with gratitude

life becomes rich.
