Dear Friends,
There is a sweet song titled “Well-Done, Lord!” It tells the story of a monk who began each day by admiring the sky, the clouds, the earth, the sun, the people, the animals – in fact, all that his eyes took in – and then he clapped his hands and exclaimed, “Well done, Lord! Oh, very well done!”
Wouldn’t this be a wonderful way to begin our days? In the awareness that all that we see before us and around us is a miracle of grace?
To feel our hearts open to that awareness in gratitude? And in this way to learn that this moment is filled to overflowing with opportunity when we are present in love?
- Gratitude is a way of living; a habitual response to the Great Fullness of God.
- Gratitude opens our hearts.
- Gratitude connects us with God, Creator, The Wholeness.
- Gratitude is a form of Love that when we express it, brings us closer to those we love
- Gratitude brings us joy, and joy is what we really want.
- Gratitude changes our lives because it changes our hearts.
- Gratitude creates a mind in us that is no longer concerned with what is not, but with what is.
- Gratitude multiplies the good in our lives to appreciate.
- Gratitude is the way of a great heart.
This month, we invite you to consciously set aside the time during your day to fill out this Gratitude Journal. You will give yourself the gift of discovering in joy– if you have not already done so – that your life is filled with miracles of grace now.
With Love and Gratitude for you!
