Some treat thankfulness as a passive thing. It is, however, truly active. Consciously, we set our minds and hearts together to think of the ways in which we have been blessed, look at the bigger picture and set our minds on seeing the small and imperceptible blessings. The end result is a thankful life- bubbling with reasons to be grateful. Don't wait for something to hit you in the face. Look for it. Think deeply about it. Think of how things could have gone. Take a look at what you possess and how it came about. Be thankful in an active way.

So true. We all have so much to be thankful for. Even in the middle of the worst storms God always gives us something to be thankful for if we choose to look for it.
