Have you ever been so thankful in a situation that you were overcome with such joyful emotion you just closed your eyes and breathed in the moment? You felt that joy and thanksgiving to the very core of your soul. That kind of heartfelt thankfulness sustains us through the chaos and confusion of day to day life. When we go days without this sustenance we become wound in a cycle where our hearts no longer seek thankful moments.
It doesn’t have to be a mountaintop experience or an oceanside vacation to bring us back to the reality of God in our lives. A simple song on the way to work or school, the smell of leather and horses, the glimpse of deer in a field all can be the heartfelt moments that will change your day from worse day ever to being thankful for that moment in time.
God wants us to experience moments like this many times a day, everyday. They have the power to bring us back to feelings of hope, stronger faith, peace, and stillness in Divine presence one moment at a time. Find your many thankful moments today!
For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7
