I read in a study that practicing gratitude for just two minutes a day makes a significant difference to our lives! It has been discovered that this makes us happier and more successful at work. The more you practice gratitude, the better it is for your brain.
“Give thanks to God the Father at all times for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Ephesians 5:20
Today I live more consciously thankful, not because of the study that was done, but because I have learned to be thankful to my Creator for everything in life.
The appropriate Bible text tells of ten lepers that Jesus healed. Unfortunately, only one came back to Jesus, fell down before him and thanked him. Jesus said to him: “Your faith has saved you.” His gratitude became salvation for this man!
Ten were healed, but only one prostrated himself before Jesus. He recognized that God had made him well. Jesus is God. It is this faith that not only saves us from the consequences of physical illness, but also from the consequences of rebellion against God.
I personally also believe in Jesus Christ. He has given me a new, eternal life. I am deeply grateful to Jesus for that!
Applicable Bible text: Luke 17:11-19
