Join me and my special guest my husband Benny discuss Thankful vs Gratefulness.

Jesus gave thanks(he prayed to God) when he broke bread before he and the disciples ate it.

Gratefulness is action behind giving thanks = Jesus healed the 10 leapers but only 1 returned his Gratefulness made him whole because he didn't just say thank you he came back to repay his respects and showing he was grateful!!

Psalm 136:1 says, “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever.” Here we have two reasons to be thankful: God’s constant goodness and His steadfast love.

What are we going to do for God to show him we are grateful to him and for him. Our reasonable service to be obedient to God. If we love him we will obey him.

You can exhibit your thanks to the world through acts of service or words, but gratitude is felt by the soul alone, a soul connected intrinsically to a higher power.

The Oxford Dictionary defines the word grateful as “showing an appreciation of kindness.” This is where the difference lies; being thankful is a feeling, and being grateful is an action. It's easy for us to look around the Thanksgiving dinner table and say that we are thankful.

Gratitude= the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness.
