Oh my goodness, I cry every.... single.... day.... of my life in gratitude.(Or get teary.)
I thank my Father, however, to be honest.
When I, by His Grace, decided He was the most important thing that exists -
and my focus was stayed on Him - then the miracles and gifts and peace that surpasses understanding and the Joy
and the Divine Love embueing sp?my heart gave me reason for humble gratitude and placed me in a state of awe.
It takes deliberate focus to place the mind on Him and His Presence.
Then, His wonders never cease.
A person cannot be grateful and thankful with their minds at the bar and watching nutty movies and living a life
not attuned to Him - their has to be the opening for this Grace of Gratitude.
Sorry if that sounded like a sermon. I feel strongly and simply about this secret to happiness.
