Category: Gratitude
everything good within us comes from God, for nothing noble or clean originates in ourselves
We receive so much that we can easily begin to take our gifts for granted
Gratitude begins with the affectionate recognition that we have received something good from another person
A grateful person does not move through life assuming that everything good is simply owed to him.
The only adequate response to the ongoing gift of life is gratitude.
It does not solve every problem or remove suffering, but it changes the way we receive our life from God.
"Purity of intention is the practice of the presence of God, bringing true freedom"
"The grateful Samaritan did not merely plan to return. He turned around at once and went back to Christ. "
"Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could call everyone in our workaday world friends!"
