Psalms 136:1 O give thanks to the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endures for ever.

•Gratitude is an opener of locked-up blessings. ~Marianne Williamson
•Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity…. It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melodie Beattie

•Gratitude is a vaccine, an antitoxin, and an antiseptic” ~John Henry Jowett

•Give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way – Native American proverb

•When there is no enemy within you, the enemies outside of you cannot hurt you – African proverb

•Feed your faith with gratitude and your fears will starve to death. •Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible.

•God:  Trust in His timing; Rely on His Promises; Wait for His Answers; Believe in His miracles; rejoice in His goodness and Relax in His presence. Be grateful.
