Thanksgiving

At church yesterday we talked about the spiritual discipline of "Thanksgiving"

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing,  GIVE thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God is Christ Jesus for you.              1  Thessalonians 5:16-18

These were a few practical actions to get the ball rolling for giving thanks...
1. Tip extra
2. Daily: "Lord, help me see the gift in everything"
3. Strategically replace grumbling with gratitude
4. Weekly:  journal and/or directly, concretely express thanks to someone.


I think i am going to tackle the last 3, but really focus on blogging once a week about "concrete thanks"  I'll call it Tuesday Thanks day...

Stay Tuned
