Overflowing With Gratitude

Therefore, as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, overflowing with gratitude.
Colossians 2:6‭-‬7 HCSB

Tonight let's look at gratitude. Gratitude is a character trait that blesses us and others. Ungrateful people abound. They are our critics. They cultivate nastiness and they think on all that is wrong and ugly.

David wrote with a grateful heart, even through all he went through. His psalms resonate with gratitude. The apostle Paul urges us to be grateful when he, of all people, had cause to complain and become bitter, but he didn't. He sang God's praises.

Gratitude needs to be pursued and cultivated and bitterness and rancor needs to be uprooted. Choose a grateful heart, always. Amen!
