Thankfulness

I've always believed that it's important to foster an attitude of gratitude whatever my circumstances. That my internal thought processes have a huge impact on my world at large. A friend recently quoted an Indian proverb that sums it up well:

"Whatever you are overflowing with will spill out when you are bumped."

Good, eh?!

Yesterday I read something I'd never noticed before about a thankful heart. That's it's not something that only either benefits or is detrimental to me and people around me, but that it's something that I can give to my Father.

"Make thankfulness your sacrifice to G-d........But giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me." Ps. 50:13, 21

I love that concept!
