Author Eric Butterworth writes that "giving thanks is an important state of consciousness that keeps [us] in an awareness of oneness with divine flow."  This week, we expand our understanding of gratitude as a powerful and transformative spiritual tool.  Put another way, "In everything give thanks.  An attitude of gratitude is most salutary and bespeaks the realization that we are already in heaven."  (Rev. Dr. Ernest Holmes, author and founder of The Science of Mind.)
