Cultivate Gratitude: Thankful, Grateful, Blessed - "Grateful" (Acts 27:35)

Gratitude is not gratitude until it crosses your lips The thanksgiving in your heart has to find a voice for it to become gratitude. In the storm - those who were confident they were at the end, who even tried to escape the ship - become encouraged after Paul expressed gratitude to God. Gratitude always needs a target. Who are you thankful to? Just like the crew "lightening the ship" so too a heart filled with gratitude lightens the load of life.
