Gratitude, the Most Powerful Healing Tool?
Do you struggle with finding things to be grateful for this Thanksgiving season?
Maybe because things are extra strange this year, it seems impossible to be grateful.
Do you know that gratitude is more powerful than love??
The power of gratitude is immense.
After Devon was home safe from being kidnapped in Mexico, I felt God impress upon me that I should express gratitude for the men who kidnapped Devon.
It was pretty easy to express:
Then I felt I should thank them for kidnapping him.
I paused thinking, “That is ridiculous.”
I paused again and pondered. Am I grateful that this experience happened? Could it have happened without the kidnappers?
Imagine if Devon had lied to us, gone to Mexico had a grand adventure and come home with us being none the wiser for it. Then this would have been a very different learning adventure for Devon, not a positive one. More “adventures” would have been taken with possibly much worse outcomes.
So I did express gratitude that this experience happened. I thanked those men for kidnapping him.
I prayed for my “enemies” and I thanked them for it too.
Join me today to learn how to harness the healing power of gratitude in your life!
