A thought on “Gratitude”
Do you recall those moments as children, when our parents or grandparents taught us to say “thank you” whenever we received something? At the time, it seemed like a lesson in good manners, an essential part of polite interaction – and indeed, it was. But numerous authors in the books of the Bible, even Jesus himself, suggest that there’s more to gratitude than just polite etiquette. Having a consistent attitude of gratitude – or a ‘View of Gratitude’ – can be a transformative life experience.
The way we perceive the world, the lens through which we interpret life’s highs, lows, and everything in between, can change everything. This season’s practice, “A View of Gratitude”, is an invitation to dive into this concept. It’s about reconsidering how we see life, events, and the people around us.
So, join us on this exploration. Is saying “thank you” more frequently merely good conversation, or can it become a fundamental shift in our life’s paradigm, helping us to mirror Jesus’ teachings and actions more closely? Let’s discover together how this ‘View of Gratitude’ can ignite powerful changes and guide us towards living a life that resonates more deeply with the wisdom and love that Jesus embodied.
