(Jonah 4:6 NKJV) And the LORD God prepared a plant and made it come up over Jonah, that it might be shade for his head to deliver him from his misery. So Jonah was very grateful for the plant.
Jonah was very grateful for the plant.
God provides so much for each of us. Are we grateful for what we have and for what He has provided us with?
Sometimes it can be very easy to forget what we have been blessed with and become caught up in what we don’t have. We can become frustrated and dissatisfied. Sometimes we even grumble about what we don’t have.
One of the things we have learned over the years is that when we are lacking in an area we need to be careful to continue to be grateful for what we have and stay thankful and appreciative. And not get focused on what we lack.
If we get negative and start to get a bad attitude it just seems to take much longer for things to turn around. Our words and our attitudes can play a big part in how our lives go.
If we take each day for what it is, being careful to thank God for what He has given us, it will make the tough times much easier and will many times help us to get through to the next season more easily.
Be grateful today and let God know it.
