Quiet Spaces a Heart of Thanks
Description
From childhood, we are taught two words which help us navigate life with people and God. We begin with "Please," naming our requests and needs. We follow it up with "Thank you," an expression of gratitude. Those words never run thin, and there are few occasions where they are amiss. These pages focus on the second word and highlight the place of gratitude in our
life. Gratitude can't be confined to a seasonal remembrance. While there are national holidays and family traditions of "Thanksgiving," being grateful is a repeated expression. You don't say "I love you" just on Valentine's Day. You wouldn't affirm a child just on their birthday. We ought to express gratitude regardless of the calendar. In fact, there is no month or situation
where gratitude is out of place. Like "please and thank you," a heart of thanks is always fitting.
Our prayer at Back to the Bible Canada is that this devotional tool will be used by God to help shape a heart of thanks within every reader. May He grant us open eyes to recognize the grace we have been granted and saturate our soul with "thanks" until it is heard in our speech, seen by our smiles, proved by our actions and rises to heaven as praise.
