I’ve come back to this post on Gratitude from back in 2011.
There is a lot that I have been terribly ungrateful for. I have allowed my perceived circumstances to bring me down, and the Spirit is strong with me in making this realization.
I’ve reviewed the scriptural mandates to be grateful found in 1 Thessalonians 5:18 and Doctrine and Covenants 46:32.
I need to change my prayers from just a rote recitation of blessings that I’m thankful for, to a more meaningful expression of thankfulness for specific blessings that I have been given. There is much about this power that I don’t understand yet.
This commandment I can obey: ALWAYS BE THANKFUL!
