7 THINGS TO BE GRATEFUL FOR THIS CHRISTMAS
BE GRATEFUL FOR LIFE
BE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU HAVE
Yes you might not have everything but you should be grateful for the little you have. Sometimes we complain about all the 1000 things we do not have and forget about the things we have without considering the fact that someone out there prays day and night to have that one thing we have. Appreciating the little things does go a really long way.
BE GRATEFUL FOR THE FACT THAT JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR YOU
Most people celebrate Christmas without knowing what Christmas is all about. Christmas is an annual festival that is celebrated to remember the birth of Jesus. Jesus died for us. He died to save us. He died to redeem us from sin. Be grateful for the fact that you are set free from sin and eternal damnation because Jesus died for you.
SHELTER
FAMILY
The family is an important part of everyone’s life. If something bad happens to any of your family members, it affects you. The fact that your family members are alive, well, hale and hearty is one of the biggest things to be grateful for this Christmas.
THE PARTS OF YOUR BODY
Another thing to be thankful for is the fact that the parts of your body are functioning well. You can move your hands, you can see, you can walk, you can talk, you can eat, you can breathe, you can hear.
THE BREAK
So many of us live stressful lives but Christmas gives the opportunity to take a break and relax for a bit! Christmas preparations can be stressful too but Christmas gives us the opportunity to have time off work, unwind and spend time with family and friends!
This is a great list. Showing gratitude is so so important. It can really change your outlook on life. I love to keep a gratitude journal x
