Thank You Notes

Give thanks for every good and perfect gift in your life today. Make a list if you need to. Start a gratitude journal. Somehow find a moment in the busyness of life to thank the Author of ALL life for the gifts He has given you. It is like writing Thank You notes; yes, I am of that generation! When someone gave me a gift, the cycle of giving was completed only when I wrote a note of thanks to the gift giver. And the nagging about the note wouldn’t stop, and I was incapable of enjoying said gift until that note was written! God makes it easy. We don’t have to write a note. We merely need to acknowledge that we recognize the gift is from Him, and He is GOOD, and we are thankful. I happen to think He also likes a little happy wiggle or squeal of delight too! What I have found is that in this way, the cycle of gratitude is completed, and I can recognize and enjoy His gifts all the more. It keeps me connected to Him on the journey through the chaos of this one life.
