Gratitude as a Journey

“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, problems into gifts, and failures into success. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.” - Melodie Beattie
Affirmative prayer: Infinite Presence, I live this day in gratitude. I begin simply: gratitude for my family, for blue skies, for shelter. I allow these easy sentiments to take me to deeper places: gratitude for a sense of purpose and fulfillment, for the awareness of my connection to others, and for the guiding touch of Spirit on my life. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.
