"It’s so easy in life for us to receive blessings, many of them almost uncounted, and have things happen in our lives that can help change our lives, improve our lives, and bring the Spirit into our lives. But we sometimes take them for granted. How grateful we should be for the blessings that the gospel of Jesus Christ brings into our hearts and souls. I would remind all of you that if we’re ever going to show gratitude properly to our Heavenly Father, we should do it with all of our heart, might, mind, and strength—because it was He who gave us life and breath" (David B. Haight, "Were There Not Ten Cleansed?," Ensign, Nov 2002, 24).
Happy Thanksgiving!
I couldn't agree more...even our very breath...everything! :D
ReplyDeleteI don't just sometimes take them for granted. I think I do always unless something hits me in the face and lets me know how blessed I am. I need to change my ways. Happy Thanksgiving to you, my friend.
